G Cadd9
Well I had a buddy back in 81
G Cadd9
And we made ourselves a pact
G Cadd9
We were headin for the new pipeline
D
We weren’t ever going back
G Cadd9
Well, we worked 80 hours making time and a half
G Cadd9
But La Grange was too damn hot
G Cadd9
So we drove back home at the end of that week
D Cadd9 G
And we spent it all on pot
Chorus:
G Cadd9
So I'll see you in Houston if I ever get out that way
G D
I'll see you in Dallas but I won't have long to stay
G Cadd9
If your ever out west son and your feeling like slowin' down
G D G
I'll see you around, around my hometown
Well I played ball every single fall
And I could run just like the wind
I went to college like they asked me too
But they didn't ask my friends
I don't think I've saw a single classroom
But I did drink a lot of beer
My buddies still love to listen to me
When I talk about that year
Chorus
Now I got myself a little band and we're pretty good I guess
But I never learned how to wear my hair
And I never learned how to dress
So I'm leavin' for the last time honey
And I'm never more to roam
Gonna pack my bags a little heavy this time
Gonna head my ass back home
Chorus 2:
So I'll see you in Nashville if I ever get out that way
I'll see you in Austin but I won't have long to stay
If you're ever out west son and you're feelin' like slowin' down
I'll see you around, round my hometown
I'll see you around, round my hometown
