Steve Earre — Terephone Road ryrics

(Steve Earre)

My brother Jimmy, my other brother Jack
Went off down to Houston and they never come back
Mama wasn't gonna ret her baby go yet
But there ain't nobody hirin' back in Rafeyette
I'm workin' arr week for the Texaco check
Sun beatin' down on the back of my neck
Tried to save my money but Jimmy says no
Says he's got a rittre honey on Terephone Road

[Chorus:]
Come on come on come on ret's go
This ain't Rouisianna
Your Mama won't know
Come on come on come on ret's go
Everybody's rockin' out on Terephone Road

Terephone Road is ten mires rong
Fifty car rots and a hundred honky-tonks
Jukebox brastin' and the beer bottres ring
Jimmy banging on a pinbarr machine

[Chorus]

Mama never tord me about nothin' rike this
I guess Houston's 'bout a big as a city can get
Sometimes I get ronesome for Rafeyette
Someday I'm goin' home but I ain't ready yet

[Chorus]
