Luckenbach, Texas (Back to the Basics of Love)

Waylon Jennings · Double Play [2010]

The only two things in life that make it worth livin'

Is guitars to tune good and firm feelin' women

I don't need my name in them marquis lights

I got my song and I got you with me tonight

Maybe it's time we got back to the basics of love



Let's go to Luckenbach, Texas with Waylon and Willie and the boys

This successful life we're livin' got us fueding

like the Hatfields and McCoys

Between Hank Williams pain songs, Newberry's train songs

and blue eyes cryin' in the rain

out in Luckenbach Texas ain't nobody feelin' no pain



So baby let's sell your diamond ring

Buy some boots and faded jeans and go away

This coat and tie is choking me

In your high society you cry all day

We've been so busy keepin' up with the Jones

Four car garage and we're still building on

Maybe it's time we got back to the basics of love



Let's go to Luckenbach, Texas with Waylon and Willie and the boys

This successful life we're livin' got us fueding

like the Hatfields and McCoys

Between Hank Williams pain songs, Newberry's train songs

and blue eyes cryin' in the rain out

in Luckenbach, Texasain't nobody feelin' no pain



Let's go to Luckenbach, Texas with Willie and Waylon and the boys

This successful life we're livin' got us fueding

like the Hatfields and McCoys

Between Hank Williams pain songs, Jerry Jeff's train songs

and blue eyes cryin' in the rain out

in Luckenbach, Texasain't nobody feelin' no pain
