well it’s lonesome in this old town
everybody puts me down
i’m a face without a name
just walking in the rain
goin’ back to houston houston houston
i got holes in both of my shoes
well i’m a walking case of the blues
saw a dollar yesterday
but the wind blew it away
goin’ back to houston houston houston
i haven’t eaten in about a week
i’m so hungry when i walk i squeak
nobody calls me friend
it’s sad the shape i’m in
goin’ back to houston houston houston
goin’ back to houston houston houston
i got a girl waiting there for me
well at least she said she’d be
i got a home and a big warm bed
and a feather pillow for my head
goin’ back to houston houston houston
well it’s lonesome in this old town
everybody put me down
i’m a face without a name
just walking in the rain
goin’ back to houston houston houston
