(with Roger Creager)

G Em
This old porch is just a big ol' red and white Hereford bull
C D
Standin' under a mesquite tree out in Agua Dulce
G Em
He just keeps on playing hide and seek with that hot August sun
C D G
He's sweatin' and a pantin' cause his work is never done
Em
Oh no
C D
He's got them cows and that red top cane
This old porch is just a steaming greasy plate of enchiladas
With lots of cheese and onions and a' guacomole salad
You can get at the La Salle Hotel in old downtown
With ice tea and a waitress who will smile everytime
Yea she will
I left a quarter tip on my ten dollar bill
(Roger)
This old porch is a palace walk-in on the main stream Texas
It ain't ever seen or heard the day of G & R and X's
With the '62 poster that's almost faded down
And a screen with out a picture since Giant came to town
Oh no,
I love them pretty girls and rocky mountains
G Em
Well this song was written by Mr. Robert Earl Keen Jr. and Lyle Lovett
C D
Right here in college station texas, and when they finished this song they said it was the
G Em
perfect country western song. But they hadn�t said anything at all about Texas Aggies or
C D
pretty girls with big ol� pickup trucks, or rainy nights, making love on feather beds,
C D G
getting drunk, barnyard animals, it should go something like this
Well he�s bowing down, oh baby you looking do to something, yeah we come to do what they say cant be done
(Cory)
G Em C D
Long way to go and a short time to get there, I�ll see you when you come on back for
G
good
(Roger)
What the hell was that? I�ll say this, I was drunk the day my mom got outta
prison and I went to pick her up in the rain. Yea but before I got to the
station in my pickup truck, she got run over by a damned old train
Yeah I�ll hang around, as long as you will let me, I never minded standing in
the rain. You don�t have to call me darling, Cory Morrow
