Houston Again – David Ball

I don’t wanna go to Houston again
I used to go there now and then
I met a little girl named Mary Lou
Prettiest thing I ever knew

Her daddy’s a big time cattle man
Said he liked me a lot and he wanted grand
Children he could bounce around on his knee
Him and Mary Lou got their eyes on me

I don’t wanna go to Houston town
I’m a rambling man can’t settle down
If I go back they’ll rope me in
No, I don’t wanna go to Houston again

I gotta be outta my mind
I’m heading straight for my ruin
Driving down Interstate 45
I’d better turn around soon

I don’t wanna go to Houston again
I used to go there now and then
I met a little girl named Mary Lou
Prettiest thing I ever knew

Her daddy’s a big time cattle man
Said he liked me a lot and he wanted grand
Children he could bounce around on his knee
Him and Mary Lou got their eyes on me

I don’t wanna go to Houston town
I’m a rambling man can’t settle down
If I go back they’ll rope me in
No, I don’t wanna go to Houston again

No, I don’t wanna go to Houston again
