It's been rough
and rocky travellin'
but I'm finally standing
upright on the ground
After takin' several
readings I'm surprised
to find my mind's
still fairly sound
I guess Nashville
was the roughest
but I know I've said
the same about them all
We received our
education in the cities
of the nation
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
At the airport
in Milwaukee
they refused to let us
board the plane at all
They said
we looked suspicious
but I believe they liked
to pick on me and Paul
Well it's been rough
and rocky travellin'
but I'm finally standing
upright on the ground
After takin' several
readings I'm surprised
to find my mind's
still fairly sound
Guess Nashville
was the roughest
but I know I've said
the same about them all
We received our
education in the cities
of the nation
me and Paul
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
But I don't think
they even missed us
I guess Buffalo
ain't geared
for me and Paul
Well it's been rough
and rocky travellin'
but I'm finally standing
upright on the ground
After takin' several
readings I'm surprised
to find my mind's
still fairly sound
I guess Nashville
was the roughest
but I know I've said
the same about them all
We received our
education in the cities
of the nation
