Karaoké Willie, Waylon, and Me David Allan Coe

I'd heard The Burritos out in California could fly higher than The Byrds

Roger McQuinn had a twelve string guitar

It was like nothin' I'd ever heard

And The Eagles flew in from the west coast

Like The Byrds they were tryin' to be free

While in Texas the talk turned to Outlaws

Like Willie and Waylon and me

Hey

Well they say Texas music's in the makin' and we've been makin' music that is free

Doin' one night stands

Playin' with our bands

Willie

Waylon and me

Oh Mad Dog

They say The Beatles were just the beginnin' of everything music could be

Just like The Stones

I was rollin' alone

Like a ship lost out on the sea

And Joplin would die for the future

And Dylan would write poetry

And in Texas the talk turned to Outlaws

Like Willie and Waylon and me

Hey

My name is David Allen Coe and I'm from Dallas Texas

They say Texas music's in the makin' and we've been makin' music that is free

Doin' one night stands

Playin' with our bands

Willie

Waylon and me

Big Jim

I'd heard The Burritos out in California could fly higher than The Byrds

Roger McQuinn had a twelve string guitar

It was like nothin' I'd ever heard

And The Eagles flew in from the west coast

Like The Byrds they were tryin' to be free

While in Texas the talk turned to Outlaws

Like Willie and Waylon and me
