[Verse 1]
G Well when you're down on your luck and you ain't got a buck D In London, you're a goner.
Even London Bridge has fallen down
G C And moved to Arizona, now I know why
And I'll substantiate the rumor that the English sense of humor
G Is drier than the Texas sand Em Gaug/B You can put up your dukes, or you can bet your boots D But I'm leavin' just as fast as I can.
[Chorus]
C C/B Am I want to go home with the Armadilla' C D G Good country music from Amarilla' and Abilene C D G The friendliest people and the prettiest women you've ever seen.
[Verse 2]
G Well, it's cold over here, and I swear D I wish they'd turn the heat on
And where in the world is that English girl
G C I promised I would meet on the third floor
And of the whole damn lot the only friend I got
G Is a smoke and a cheap guitar Em Gaug/B My mind keeps rollin' and my heart keeps yearnin' D To be home in a Texas bar.
[Chorus]
C C/B Am I want to go home with the Armadilla' C D G Good country music from Amarilla' and Abilene C D G The friendliest people and the prettiest women you've ever seen. G Well I decided that I'd get my cowboy hat D And go down to Marble Arch Station D 'Cause when a Texan fancies he'll take his chances G C Chances will be taken, that's for sure
And them Limey eyes, they were eyein' the prize
G Some people call manly footwear Em And they said "You're from down South" Gaug/B And when you open your mouth D You always seem to put your foot there.
[Chorus]
C C/B Am I want to go home with the Armadilla' C D G Good country music from Amarilla' and Abilene C D G The friendliest people and the prettiest women you've ever seen.
