Goin' Down Swingin'

(album: Dallas/Fort Worth - 2022)

Downtown's got a bunch of bands, with rock and roll six stringing
But if I go down, I'm going down swinging
Do some one, two stepping to some old bob wills' singing
Yeah, if I go down, I'm going down swinging

Dallas down to san antone
Rolling like a rolling stone
I'll stop for every flashing neon light
Driving down them f.m. roads
With a.m. on my radio
Ace in the hole band play me home tonight
Hammer down on the beat that po-po said I'm speeding
He can lock me up but I'm going down swinging

You're a little country for today, but what the hell so be it
If you're going down, go on down swinging
You know you're way behind the times with this twang thing you're bringing
If you go down, go on down swinging

I am what I say I am
You don't like me, I don't give a damn
No one can please em all and that's all right
You know I ain't no scaredy crow, I'll put em up there toe to toe
Ain't gonna ring no bell without a fight
If they think they can knock me out, boy they better bring it
If I go down, I'm going down swinging

Dallas down to San Antone
Rolling like a rolling stone
I'll stop for every flashing neon light
Driving down them f.m. roads
With a.m. on my radio
Ace in the hole band play me home tonight

Gonna go see my little gal later on this evening
She got some sun brewed sweat tea kisses that need stealing
Gonna hold her tight hanging from that back porch ceiling
Watch that hot Texas sun, going down swinging
