Is Anybody Goin' To San Antone
Tanya Tucker · Other Songs - Tanya Tucker
It sure seems cold today
Here I am a walkin down 66
Wish she hadn't done me that way
Sleepin under a table at a road side stop
Well a man could wake up dead
Still it seems a warmer than it did
Sleepin in your king size bed
Is anybody goin to San Antone
Or Phoenix Arizona
Anyplace is all right
As long as I
Forget I ever known her
The wind's whippin down the neck of my shirt
Like I ain't got nothin on
Still I'd rather fight the wind and rain
Than what I was fightin back home
Is anybody goin to San Antone
Or Phoenix Arizona
Anyplace is all right
As long as I
Forget I ever known her
Well Yonder goes a truck with the US mail
For folks writin letters back home
Tommorrow she'll probably want me back
But I'll be just as gone
Is anybody goin to San Antone
Or Phoenix Arizona
Anyplace is all right
As long as I
Forget I ever known her
