I jumped in the car and I headed for Kansas

The mornin' found me in Port Aransas
Chord diagramC majorC                          Chord diagramG+G
Sippin' on rum, lyin' in the sun

I've never been good at keepin' direction

Schedules are one of life's infections

Spent the evenin' in a tavern downtown

With my new friends that I'd gathered 'round
      Chord diagramC majorC                                      Chord diagramG+G
And I told them 'bout you and all we've been through
              Chord diagramG+G
'Bout how you tried to keep me tied down

And the lights went out on our final round
   Chord diagramC majorC
We all did agree

  You can lead a horse to water but you damn sure can't make it drink

She was smiling shyly from a barstool in the corner

Thanking me for those drinks that I ordered
       Chord diagramC majorC                                   Chord diagramG+G
By the look in her eye she was feeling her wine
            Chord diagramG+G
I asked her what she was doin' here alone

And if she'd mind if I took her home
          Chord diagramC majorC
Hell, she just laughed at me
               Chord diagramD MajorD                          Chord diagramC majorC                             Chord diagramG+G
She said, "I'd rather have nothin' than a whole lotta somethin' I don't need"

Chord diagramC majorC                      Chord diagramG+G                     Chord diagramD MajorD
  You can go ahead and keep the money in the bank
Chord diagramC majorC                                           Chord diagramG+G                       Chord diagramD MajorD
  And you can lead a horse to water but you damn sure can't make it drink
