Long Way From Texas Lyrics

Lightning Hopkins Long Way From Texas

I come all the way from Texas just to shake glad hands
with you
I come all the way from Texas just to shake glad hands
with you
Yes, but when I seed in your smiling face I didn't know
just what to do

I ought to been knowing these things for a great long
time
I ought to been knowing these things for a great long
time
You know it take me for quite awhile 'fore I made it up
in my mind
(Spoken: Got to play it a minute)

I'm gonna tell all my friends just as soon as I go back
home
I'm gonna tell all my friends just as soon as I go back
home
Know they all gonna get on and wonder what is I been
waiting on
