Drive-By Truckers - I'm Sorry Huston lyrics

I just met Huston
He was lookin' for your door
He said he'd like to buy a horse
I saw he had a map of the county in his hand
He had your house circled red
Cherokee is too damn far to come back by
And ol' Huston needs a ride

You just missed Huston
He was lookin' so confused
I guess he really needed you
He was old and tired and
Looking for the truth
I guess ol' Huston's got the blues
Cherokee is too damn far to go back dry
I promise Huston I'll try
You ain't givin' up on lookin' for your thing
Even if you prob'ly should
I'm sorry, Huston, I ain't got what you need
But, I promise you, I'd help you if I could



You ain't givin' up on lookin' for your thing
Even if you prob'ly should
I'm sorry, Huston, I ain't got what you need
But, I promise you, I'd help you if I could

Cherokee is too damn far to go back dry
