Little Feat - Texas Twister Lyrics
Fred Tackett, Martin Kibbee, Bill Payne, Paul BarrereOh the siren song is strong sometimes... Texas radioThey sure do play it hard and fast - sell it soft and lowA silky voice she spoke to me from down in San Antone"It's ladies night in Italy, and gentlemen should know"When I saw that neon sign, knew just where to goHer shoulders soft and I pulled off, her headlights all aglowA bartender said to me, boy I want you to meet my sisterShe's high-strung and a little young, but she's a real Texas twisterA real Texas twisterI said "How young is too young? How fast is too fast?Whoa high is too high? Yah, how high is too high?"She said "How long is this ride?" Well how long can you last?You're gonna find out mister, when you meet that Texas twisterOh now in the light she looked all right when we stepped outsideI knew that it was meant to be when she begged me for a rideThat bartender said to me, boy take your money backBefore you're done you're gonna need it son --You might have a heart attackI seen the sights now, Paris, Rome, and I ain't sentimentalI still remember how she said, yes I do, "Is this a Continental?"No babe it's just for flash and I paid cash, she hugged me up real tightLay back honey I'll drive you home 'round the world tonightShe knew where every roadhouse lies, clear down to the borderLong neck Lone Stars just her size, clearly made to orderKnew how to paint a cowboy town, long before I missed herShe picked me up; she put me down, she's a real Texas twisterI said "How young is too young? How fast is too fast?Oh how high is too high? Yeah how high is too high?"She said "How long is this ride?" Yeah how long can you last?You're gonna find out mister, when you meet that Texas twister (yeah)How high is too high?How high is too high?How high is too high
