Ray Wylie Hubbard - Easy Money Down in Texas lyrics

It's easy money down in Texas
Get a guitar and start a band
Play the open mic at
The Cheatham Street Warehouse
For the college kids and red dirt fans
Then call up Larry Joe Taylor
And say you wanna play his Chili Fest
Get drunk with Cody, Wade, and Cody
Jack and Cody and all the rest

It's easy money down in Texas easy money
Easy money down in Texas easy money

It's easy money down in Texas
Wear your hair like Robert Plant
Buy a faded Levi jacket
Say you's influenced by Townes Van Zandt
Get your tattoos from Bart Willis
Don't ever disrespect George Strait
Have Jeb Hurt do your booking
You'll never have to play in any other state

It's easy money down in Texas easy money
Easy money down in Texas easy money

It's easy money down in Texas
Now you got a van, a trailer
And some trucker speed
Driving all night after a gig in Lubbock
The drummer's riding shotgun
Playing Assassin's Creed
Roll into Austin about sun-up
Two Torchy's tacos and a Shiner six pack
Won't be long 'til you're on a tour bus
Leaving Billy Bob's and counting greenbacks

Easy money down in Texas easy money
Easy money down in Texas easy money
It's easy money down in Texas easy money
Easy money down in Texas easy money

Oh, it's easy money
All you boys from Oklahoma come on down too
It's easy money
