Well it´s lonesome in this old town Everybody puts me down I´m a face without a name Just walking in the rain Goin´ back to Houston, Houston, Houston
I got holes in both of my shoes Well I´m a walking case of the blues Saw a dollar yesterday But the wind blew it away Goin´ back to Houston, Houston, Houston
I haven´t eaten in about a week I´m so hungry when I walk I squeak Nobody calls me friend It´s sad the shape I´m in Goin´ back to Houston, Houston, Houston
Goin´ back to Houston, Houston, Houston I got a girl waiting there for me Well at least she said she´d be I got a home and a big warm bed And a feather pillow for my head
Goin´ back to Houston, Houston, Houston
Well it´s lonesome in this old town Everybody put me down I´m a face without a name Just walking in the rain Goin´ back to Houston, Houston, Houston
