Part 1:(Waylon)

There 're only two things in life that make it worth livin'

It's guitar tuned good and firm feelin' women

I don't need my name in the marquis lights

I got my song and I got you with me tonight
G\ C\ D\ G
Maybe it's time we got back to the basics of love
Chorus:(Waylon)
G C
Let's go to Luckenbach Texas with Waylon and Willie and the boys
D
This successful life we're livin' has got us fueding

and blue eyes cryin' in the rain out in Luckenbach Texas
G
ain't nobody feelin' no pain

G\
So baby let's sell your diamond ring
C\ C\ G
Buy some boots and faded jeans and go away

This coat and tie is choking me

In your high society you cry all day
We've been so busy keepin'up with the Jones

Four car garage and we're still building on
G\ C\ D\ G
Maybe it's time we got back to the basics of love
Chorus(Waylon)
Chorus(Willie):
Let's go in Luckenbach Texas with Willie and Waylon and the boys
This successful life we're livin' has got us fueding

Between Hank Williams pain songs Jerry Jeff's train songs
and blue eyes cryin' in the rain out in Luckenbach Texas
ain't nobody feelin' no pain ....
