High Plains Jamboree lyrics
Song information
Artist: Robert Earl Keen Album: Gravitational Forces
Lyrics
Terry allen
She was a honkytonker and he was a family man And she showed him her gold teeth when he'd hold her little hand And they met out on the highway at the paradise motel lounge On saturday nights when things weren't right between him and his wife in town
Chorus: They're just another couple on a high plains jamboree Playin' out those sad songs they understand Just another couple makin' juke box memories Walkin' into troubles hand in hand
She weren't no maid of cotton and he weren't no hell of a man So they must have loved each other like only the lonely can 'Cause they slow-danced through the neon like a sorrow through a song Then they carried the tune to the motel room and they played it all night long
(Repeat chorus)
