  			{G}Headed out for {D}Luckenbach on {G}Thursday Night  
       
{G}My friends gave me a {G7} double dog {C}bet 

{C}Made it to Austin, {G}by Friday mornin' 

{D}Luckenbach was just C to far to G get 


I called my brother from a pay phone at the Broken Spoke 
Just to let him now where I'd been 
Told him not to worry, I'd be home tomorrow 
Please give the message to my friends. 

Chorus 

{G}That I'm alive and well down in south Texas 

Haven't spent all G7 my money {C}yet 
                                              
I'll be broke tomorrow, but G I don't really care 

There's {D}somethings that {C}money won't {G}get. 


Ol' Jerry Jeff was right about the Broken Spoke 
You can drink and dance and have loads of fun 
If your timin' is right on a friday night 
You just might catch Gary P Nunn 

{G}And you can go {C} home to the Em arma Am dillo 

Hear country C music from Am D rillo and {G}Abilene 

SOLO: 

Well I really hate leaving south Texas 
And Oklahoma so far away 
I've got to be at work on Monday mornin' 
Oh what the hell I might as well stay
