The Road to Terlingua

Just outside of San Antone, stopped at a joint for some shots of Patron Listening to the freight trains lettin' off steam Broken bottles and a kicked in fan, never takes long for things to get out of hand Didn't give a damn, we were just ready to roll Old man said, you boys have had your fill, get you a room, settle up on the bill Things went south when they tried to take my keys We were raised better, we knew wrong from right Daddy taught us never to run from the fight Started throwing down in the middle of the street Don't tell mama, she don't need to know We drank too much tequila On the road to Terlingua, we laid that peddle down Old man said, these boys ain't got no sense Flash of life, full of regrets When he looked in their eyes and felt the yearning for the open road Jumped in the truck and we got out of sight Cloud of dust, tail lights in the night Thought we were free, then we saw those flashing lights Don't tell mama, she don't need to know We drank too much tequila On the road to Terlingua, we laid that peddle down We drank too much tequila On the road to Terlingua, we laid that peddle down We laid that peddle down Don't tell mama, she don't need to know We drank too much tequila Don't tell mama, we drank too much tequila She don't need to know On the road to Terlingua, we laid that peddle down She don't need to know On the road to Terlingua
