[00:00:00] West Texas Waltz featuring Emmylou Harris (Album Version) - Flaco Jimenez

[00:00:00] Written by：Butch Hancock

[00:00:00] When you're ready for steady to go dancin' romancin'

[00:00:06] Grab your sweetheart and jump in your car

[00:00:11] Drive right on down to the bright side of town

[00:00:14] You'll be glad you don't have to drive far

[00:00:18] You'll be happy you don't have to go far

[00:00:22] Park your pickups and Cadilacs Fords and Renaults

[00:00:27] And dance like the dickens to the West Texas Waltz

[00:00:35] Grandmammy grandpappy if you want to stay happy

[00:00:39] You better lace up your best dancing shoes

[00:00:43] Come see us don't write us you can stop your arthritis

[00:00:47] Just by dancin' away your blues

[00:00:51] Just by dancin' away your blues

[00:00:55] So bind up your bunions with band aids and gauze

[00:00:59] Come dance like the dickens to the West Texas Waltz

[00:01:26] I met a fine banker and I'd sure like to thank him

[00:01:30] For the credit he gave me made me shout

[00:01:34] He changed my whole attitude and to show him ny gratitude

[00:01:38] I decided I'd just ask him out

[00:01:42] Yes I thought I just might ask her out

[00:01:46] I said close up your windows honey lock up your vaults

[00:01:51] And dance like the dickens to the West Texas Waltz

[00:01:59] We spent the next to the last dollar in the old ice cream parlor

[00:02:03] On a milkshake and a malt and a pop

[00:02:07] Then we heard us some sounds there was a H***y tonk lounge

[00:02:11] Right next to the ice cream shop

[00:02:15] Next door to the ice cream shop

[00:02:19] Now only two things are better than milkshakes and malts

[00:02:23] And one is dancin' like the dickens to the West Texas Waltz

[00:02:32] And the other is somethin' but really it's nothin'

[00:02:36] To speak of it's somethin' to do

[00:02:40] If you've done it before you'll be doin' it some more

[00:02:44] Just as soon as the dancin' is through

[00:02:48] Right after the dancin' is through

[00:02:52] And if anybody asks you why just tell it's because

[00:02:56] You been dancin' like the dickens to the West Texas Waltz
