[1974]
Intro: G D G
Well [C]he outgrew his sequined suit, sold his Trailways [G]bus
[A]Let his 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
[A]And in its place a new electrical one he had [D]flown in [G]from Ja[D]pan
Chorus:
'Cause he's a [C]cheeseburger eatin', abandoned Sunday meetin'
Brand new country [G]star
[A]He 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[A] 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)
Enjoy!
