Right in the middle of the tencent scenery Shuffled and stacked on a post card rack Theres a cute little kid with a Shetland Pony Who smiles at me and I cant smile back And Cactus Jack drinks coffee black And tells me its my lucky day Five oclock in the Texas morning And Ive come a long long way She left me cold on a winters morning And cold its been for the longest time Told me Texas was where she was goin And I came lookin and shes hard to find And Cactus Jack drinks coffee black I dont know just where Ill find her Maybe the soldier with the suitcase saw her She just said she was goin to Texas for a little while So Im lookin for the girl with light brown hair Sheg got hazel eyes and shes not too pretty Shes got a beautiful smile and she just said She was goin down to Texas for a little while The cook in the back is gettin curious To ask the waitress where Im from She just said, I aint never seen him Hes probably just a California bum. And Cactus Jack says, Thats right. As I walk out into the light Five oclock in the Texas morninig And Ive got a long long ride Outside the sun is up And the wind blows me like a paper cup Down the highway
texas, cactus, jack, goin, oclock
