GThis old porch is a big ol' red and Emwhite Hereford bull Standin' Cunder a mesquite tree in DAgua Dulce, Texas GHe keeps on playin' hide and seek with that Emhot august sun CSweatin' and a pantin' cause his Dwork is never Gdone Oh Emno, with those Ccows and Da red top cane
GThis old porch is a steamin' greasy Emplate of enchiladas With lots of Ccheese and onions and a Dguacamole salad GYou can get them at the LaSalle Hotel in Dold downtown CWith ice tea and a waitress who will Dsmile every Gtime Oh Emyeah, I left a Cquarter tip on my Dten dollar bill
GThis old porch is a palace walk in on a Emmain street in Texas It ain't Cnever seen or heard the days of DG's and R's and X's GAnd that '62 poster that's almost faded Emdown CAnd a screen without a picture since DGiant came to Gtown Oh Emno, I like those Cjunior mints and the Dred hots too, yes I do
GThis old porch is like a Emweathered grey haired seventy years of Texas GWho's doin' all he can not to Dgive in to the city CAnd he always takes my rent late Dso long as I run his Gcattle He Empicks me up at dinner time and I listen to him rattle
He says the Brazos still runs muddy like she's run all along There's never been no cane to grind and the cotton's all but gone You know this Chevrolet pickup truck, hell she was somethin' back in '60 But now there won't nobody listen to him 'cause they all think he's crazy This old porch is just a long time of waiting and forgetting Remembering the coming back and not crying about the leaving And remembering the falling down and the laughter of the curse of luck From all those son's of bitches who said we'd never get back up This old porch is a big old red and white Hereford bull Standing under a mesquite tree out in Agua Dulce He keep's on playing hide and seek with that hot August sun He's sweating and a panting 'cause his work is never done I've know a whole lot of bulls in my time, and there work is never done
