Well my wife returns from taking

My little girl to school

She`s got beads of perspiration

As she tries to keep her cool

There`s gonna come a day
     F
Someone`s gonna get killed out there
      G                   A
And I turn to her and say Texas

She says what?

         A
She says what?
            D
They`ve got big long road out there
