London Homesick Blues

Gotta put myself back in that place again

Well, when you're down on your luck

And you ain't got a buck

In London, you're a goner

Even London Bridge has fallen down

And moved to Arizona

Now I know why

And I'll substantiate the rumor that the English sense of humor

Is drier than the Texas sand

You can put up your dukes, or you can bet your boots

That I'm leavin' just as fast as I can

I wanna go home with the armadillo

Good country music from Amarillo and Abilene

The friendliest people and the prettiest women you've ever seen

Well, it's cold over here, and I swear

I wish they'd turn the heat on

And where in the world is that English girl?

I promised I would meet on the third floor

And of the whole damn lot, the only friend I've got

Is a smoke and a cheap guitar

My mind keeps roamin', my heart keeps longin'

To be home in a Texas bar

I wanna go home with the armadillo

Good country music from Amarillo and Abilene

The friendliest people and the prettiest women you've ever seen

Well, I decided that I'd get my cowboy hat

And go down to Marble Art Station

'Cause when a Texan fancies, he'll take his chances

Chances will be taken, that's for sure

And them limey eyes, they were eyein' the prize

Some people call manly footwear

And they said you're from down south

And when you open your mouth

You always seem to put your foot there

I wanna go home with the armadillo

Good country music from Amarillo and Abilene

The friendliest people and the prettiest women you've ever seen

I wanna go home with the armadillo

Good country music from Amarillo and Abilene (yeah, yeah-yeah)

The friendliest people and the prettiest women you've ever seen

I wanna go home with the armadillo

Good country music from Amarillo and Abilene (yeah, yeah)

The friendliest people and the prettiest women you've ever seen

I wanna go home with the armadillo

Good country music from Amarillo and Abilene (yeah)

The friendliest people and the prettiest women you've ever seen

I wanna go home with the armadillo (oh-yeah, dance on)

Music from Amarillo and Abilene

The friendliest people and the prettiest women you've ever seen

Maybe fells so to you

That was Gary P. Nunn

I wanna go home with the armadillo

Good country music from Amarillo and Abilene

The friendliest people and the prettiest women you've ever seen

I wanna go home with the armadillo (yeah, yeah)

Good country music from Amarillo and Abilene (sing it all out)

The friendliest people and the prettiest women you've ever seen

I wanna go home with the armadillo
