Doug Sahm - Me And Paul lyrics

It's been rough and rocky traveling'
I finally got my feet back on the ground
After takin' several readings I find out that
My mind's still fairly sound

I thought Nashville was the roughest
But, I guess I said the same about them all
They said we look suspicious
But, I think they like to pick on me and Paul

Almost busted in Laredo but for reasons
That I'd rather not disclose
But, if you're stayin' in a
Motel there and leave
Just don't leave nothin' in your clothes

And at the airport in Milwaukee
They refused to let us board the plane at all
They said we looked suspicious
But, I believe they like to
Pick on me and Paul

It's been rough and rocky travelin'
But, I'm finally standing upright
On the ground
After takin' several readings I'm surprised
To find my mind's still fairly sound

On a package show in Buffalo with us
And Kitty Wells and Charlie Pride
The show was long and
We're just sittin' there
And we'd come to play and
Not just for the ride

Well we drank a lot of
Whiskey so I don't know
If we went on that night at all
I don't think they even missed us
I guess Buffalo ain't geared for me and Paul

It's been rough and rocky travelin'
But, I'm finally standing upright
On the ground
After takin' several readings I'm surprised
To find my mind's still fairly sound
