LOOKING FOR LUCKENBACH

I got lost looking for Luckenbach out on 1888
Chasing a big red setting sun
Trying to make it before too late
The river was still, the road empty
Not a dance hall to be found
Then I blinked and I missed Luckenbach
I drove right by that town

I got lost looking for Luckenbach
Yeah I drove right on past
But when you’re driving an Oldsmobile
Nothing goes by too fast
Then I saw the lights
And heard that Texas music in the air
The pilgrimage was over
And Luckenbach was there

I got lost looking for Luckenbach
Late one Saturday night
But i found cowboys and fireflies and bikers
Dancing in the neon lights
The beer was cold, the music hot
Ray Wyle growled and grooved
And now I wanna go back to Luckenbach
And I’m singing the Luckenbach blues

I found Willie and Waylon and Jerry-Jeff
And all that you don’t wanna lose
Lost looking for Luckenbach
And singing the Luckenbach blues
Lost looking for Luckenbach
And singing the Luckenbach blues

I’m going to Luckenbach Texas
Willie and Waylon and the boys
