Текст (слова) песни: Old 97`s - W. Tx Teardrops

 
Well the roadmaps of west Texas never gave me good advice. 
The trains all roll where the roads don`t go, now I lay awake at night, 
Just wondering where the rest is so I hit that iron gate, 
And I yelled good-bye to that wife of mine, I may be running late. 
 
I`m a-rolling on, I`m a-rolling on, 
Rolling out past El Paso Texas, where I might have had a home. 
I made my bed, so here I lie. 
I`m rolling west Texas teardrops in my eye. 
 
Though I felt a lonesome feeling in Dulce New Mexico, 
I was happier than I`d ever been in my El Paso home. 
But I thought about the woman whom I left to roam the land, 
And I cried so much it dug a rut they call the Rio Grande. 
 
I`m a-rolling on, I`m a-rolling on, 
Rolling out past El Paso Texas, where I might have had a home. 
I made my bed, so here I lie. 
I`m rolling west Texas teardrops in my eye. 
 
And my destination is written upon my feet, 
And the stars above are about the only company I keep. 
I raise my pass and take my seat. 
I`m rolling fast with a teardrop on my cheek. 
 
So I guess there`ll be no family, so I guess there`ll be no wife. 
Gonna roll away on an old steel dray, it`s gonna be my life. 
And the roadmaps I been reading, I never came to figure out. 
All I know is I`d explode by any other route. 
 
I`m a-rolling on, I`m a-rolling on, 
Rolling out past El Paso Texas, where I might have had a home. 
I made my bed, so here I lie. 
I`m rolling west Texas teardrops in my eye.
