Intro: G D G
Well he (C) outgrew his sequined suit, sold his Trailways (G) bus
Let his (Am) hair get a little too long
His (D) ducktail's (G) bit the (D) dust
His (C) custom made, pearl-inlaid guitar slipped from his (G) hand
And (Am) in its place a new electrical one he had (D) flown in (G) from Jap(D)an
Cause he's a (C) cheeseburger eatin', abandoned Sunday meetin'
Brand new country (G) star
He (Am) rides around in a Lincoln Continental
Those (D) steer horns (G) on his (D) car
Oh, the (C) record men say he's livin' end
They're gonna spin him right to the (G) top
Yeah he's a (Am) hot roman candle from the Texas panhandle
He can (C) either go (D) country or (G) pop
Got a good old friend name of Texas Ben,
Tells him all the spots to play
And a sweet little lady, he calls her Sexy Sadie
She's with the boy night and day
They're gonna open up a chain of fancy bowlin' lanes
The first one in his old hometown
And on ribbon-cuttin' day they'll come from miles away
The folks'll all gather 'round and sing
Repeat Chorus
