Well, I had a buddy back in ?81 and we
   Made ourselves a pact
   We were headin? for the new pipeline
   we were never comin? back
   We worked 80 hours makin? time
   and a half but
   La Grange was too damn hot
   So we drove back home here at the
   end of that week
   And we spent it all on pot
  
   Chorus:
  
   So I?ll see you in Houston if I ever get
   Out that way
   I?ll see you in Dallas but I won?t have long to stay
   If you?re ever out West, son
   And you?re
  
   feelin? like slowin? down
   I?ll see you around, ?round my hometown
  
   Well, I played ball every single fall I could
   Run just like the wind
   I went to college, like they asked me to, but
   They didn?t ask my friends
   I don?t think I seen single classroom but I
   Drank a lot of beer
   My buddies still love to listen to me when I
   Talk about that year
  
   Chorus
  
   Now I got myself a little band
   And we?re pretty good I guess
   But I never learned how to wear my hair
   And I never learned how to dress
   So I?m leaving for the last time honey
   I?m never more to roam
   Gonna pack my bags a little heavy this time
   Gonna head my ass back home
  
   So, I?ll see you in Nashville if I ever
   Get out that way
   I?ll see you in Austin but I won?t
   Have long to stay
   If you?re ever out West, son
   And you?re feelin? like slowin? down
   I?ll see you around, ?round my hometown
