Nitty Gritty Dirt Band - Down In Texas Lyrics






I left you cryin' at the DC station
I had a little spendin' change, Lord knows I had determination
If you want the good life, you got to make it big
So I left you waiting, so I could go out and dig in this big old world.

But now I'm down in Texas, ain't got one thin dime
I'm so lonely for you, baby, so tired of wastin' my time
So come on down to get me, don't blame me 'cause I tried
I need your lovin' so bad, get on train and ride.

I've been up on rigs, high as you can see
They pay you like a half a man, girl, they work you like you're free
Here in the crowded city, you gotta steal to get along
So take me, pretty baby, take me back home ‘cause I'm so tired, yeah.

Now I'm down in Texas, ain't got one thin dime
I'm so lonely for you, baby, so tired of wastin' my time
So come on down to get me, don't blame me 'cause I tried
I need your lovin' so bad, get on train and ride.

Alright, now
I'm down in Texas, ain't got one thin dime
I'm so lonely for you, baby, so tired of wastin' my time
So come on down to get me, don't blame me 'cause I tried
I need your lovin' so bad, get on train and ride
Ride, ride, ride, ride, ride, ride, ride.

  33. J.... L....

    1.25 speed is perfect

  34. M.... D....

    I came here because I wanted to hear the song. I saw all the comments about people coming from the washing machine, and I assumed there must be some lyrics I missed in the song about using the washing machine for... you know. I thought all the people saying "i came here from the washing machine" and "the washing machine brought me here" were saying that they were conceived that way. Then there are people talking about changing the speed of "washing machine" and I thought we were getting really... technical. Also, as many people have said, this is Mel McDaniel.

  35. k.... ....

    it sounds better at 1.5 speed

  36. E.... ....

    1.25x speed is great! Perfect for the washing machine too.
