Luckenbach Texas (Back to the Basics of Love) Songtext
von Adam Harvey

The only two things in life that make it worth living
Are guitars that tune good, and firm-feelin′ women
I don't need my name in the marquee lights
I′ve got my songs, and I've got you all with me tonight
So, maybe it's time we got back to the basics of love

Let′s go to Luckenbach, Texas, Willie and Waylon and the boys
This successful life we′re livin's got us feuding like the Hatfields and McCoys
Between Hank Williams′ pain songs and Newbury's train songs
And "Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain"
Out in Luckenbach, Texas, there ain′t nobody feelin' no pain


So baby, let′s sell your diamond rings, buy some boots and faded jeans and go away
This suit and tie, it's choking me, all that high society, we cry all day
We've been so busy keepin′ up with the Jones
A four-car garage and we′re still buildin' on
So maybe it′s time we got back to the basics of love

Let's go to Luckenbach, Texas, Willie and Waylon and the boys
This successful life we′re livin's got us feudin′ like the Hatfields and McCoys
Between Hank Williams' pain songs and Newbury's train songs
And "Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain"
Out in Luckenbach, Texas, there ain′t nobody feelin′ no pain

Let's go to Luckenbach, Texas, Willie and Waylon and the boys
This successful life we′re livin's got us feudin′ like the Hatfields and McCoys
Between Hank Williams' pain songs, and Newbury′s train songs
And "Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain"
Out in Luckenbach, Texas, there ain't nobody feelin' no pain

Out in Luckenbach, Texas, there ain′t nobody feelin′ no pain
