Artist: Waylon Jennings (peak Billboard position # 25 in 1977)

Words and Music by Chips Moman and Bobby Emmons

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

Is guitars tuned good 'n' firm-feelin' women

I don't need ma name in the marquee lights

I got my songs 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 feudin' like the Hatfields and McCoys

Between Hank Williams' pain songs and Newbury'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 chokin' 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 buildin' 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 feudin' like the Hatfields and McCoys

Between Hank Williams' pain songs and Newbury's train songs

And blue eyes cryin' in the rain

Out in Luckenbach, Texas ain't nobody feelin' no pain
