London Homesick Blues

Well when you're down on your luck

And you ain't got a buck, in London you're a goner

Even London Bridge has fallen down

And moved to Arizona, now I know why

And I'll substantiate the rumor

That the English sense of humor

Is drier than the Texas sand

And you can put up your dukes or you can bet your boots but I'm leavin' just as fast as I can

I wanna go home with the armadillo

Good country music from Amarillo and Abilene

The friendliest people and the prettiest women you've ever seen

Well it's cold over here, and I swear

I wish they'd turn the heat on

And where in the world is that English girl

I promised I would meet on the third floor

And of the whole damn lot the only friend I’ve got is the smoke and a cheap guitar

My mind keeps roamin’ and my heart keeps longing to be home in Texas bar

I wanna go home with the armadillo

Good country music from Amarillo and Abilene

The friendliest people and the prettiest women you've ever seen

Well I decided that I'd take my cowboy hat

And go down to Marble Arch Station

Cause when a Texas fancies he'll take his chances

Chances will be taken, that's for sure

And them Limey eyes they were eyin' the prize some people call manly footwear

And they say you're from down south

And when you open your mouth

You always seem to put your foot there

I wanna go home with the armadillo

Good country music from Amarillo and Abilene

The friendliest people and the prettiest women you've ever seen

I wanna go home with the armadillo

Good country music from Amarillo and Abilene

The friendliest people and the prettiest women you've ever seen
