Willie, Waylon and Me
And I heard the burritos out in California
Could fly higher than the birds
Roger McGuinn had a 12-string guitar
It was like nothing I'd ever heard
And the eagles flew in from the West Coast
Like the birds, they were trying to be free
While in Texas, the talk turned to outlaw
Like Willie and Waylon, and me, hey
Well, they say Texas music's in the making
And we been making music that is free
Doing one-night stands, playing with our bands
Willie, Waylon, and me, oh, mad dog
They say the Beatles were just the beginning
Of everything, music could be
Just like the stones I was rolling along
Like a ship lost out on the sea
And Joplin would die for the future
And Dillon would write poetry
And in Texas, the talk turned to Outlaw
Like Willie, and Waylon, and me, hey
My name is David Allen Coe, and I'm from Dallas, Texas
They say Texas music's in the making
And we been making music that is free
Doing one-night stands, playing with our bands
Willie, Waylon, and me, Big Jim
I heard the burritos out in California
Could fly higher than the birds
Roger McGuinn had a 12-string guitar
It was like nothing I'd ever heard
And the Eagles flew in from the West Coast
Like the birds, they were trying to be free
While in Texas, the talk turned to outlaw
Like Willie, and Waylon, and me
Could fly higher than the birds
Roger McGuinn had a 12-string guitar
It was like nothing I'd ever heard
And the eagles flew in from the West Coast
Like the birds, they were trying to be free
While in Texas, the talk turned to outlaw
Like Willie and Waylon, and me, hey
Well, they say Texas music's in the making
And we been making music that is free
Doing one-night stands, playing with our bands
Willie, Waylon, and me, oh, mad dog
They say the Beatles were just the beginning
Of everything, music could be
Just like the stones I was rolling along
Like a ship lost out on the sea
And Joplin would die for the future
And Dillon would write poetry
And in Texas, the talk turned to Outlaw
Like Willie, and Waylon, and me, hey
My name is David Allen Coe, and I'm from Dallas, Texas
They say Texas music's in the making
And we been making music that is free
Doing one-night stands, playing with our bands
Willie, Waylon, and me, Big Jim
I heard the burritos out in California
Could fly higher than the birds
Roger McGuinn had a 12-string guitar
It was like nothing I'd ever heard
And the Eagles flew in from the West Coast
Like the birds, they were trying to be free
While in Texas, the talk turned to outlaw
Like Willie, and Waylon, and me
