Janine

It's the same old rodeo

Whenever it appears

The roughnecks and truck drivers

Pipeliners and engineers

Our dusty little cowtown

Turned into a boomtown fast

Guess we had to say so long

To our little town of the past

Janine, my heart goes out to you

I know you've been trying

I've been trying too

Now there's big rigs on the highway

Loaded up with sand and tools

Oil rigs on the skyline

New kids in the schools

The thing about a cowtown

There's always dust

But it always rains eventually

And rain it must

Janine, my heart goes out to you

I know you've been trying

I've been trying too

Janine, my heart goes out to you

I know you've been trying

I've been trying too

I hope that you've been saving

A little of that boomtown pay

I hope that you've been holding on

To something for a rainy day

The thing about a cowtown

There's always dust

The thing about a boom is

There's always a bust

Janine, my heart goes out to you

I know you've been trying

I've been trying too

Janine, my heart goes out to you

I know you've been trying

I've been trying too
