Cold Lone Star beer and a half pack of smokes
Oh, is all that they pay me for the songs that I wrote
Here in this bar, well, the owner can? t pay
Cause nobody came to see me or hear me play
Chorus:
Writin these songs and singing all these lines
Over and over hundreds of times
Ill never be pretty I wont get far
Just writing these songs on a pawn shop guitar
Drove on down to Houston for my next show
Sometimes don't it surprise you how the wheels turn slow
Made it back home without a dollar to pay
For my gas on down to Stephenville the very next day
Chorus
Chorus
No I won't marry a Dixie chick or a movie star
But I'll keep on playin? my pawn shop guitar
