Текст песни: Last of the Houston Honky Tonk Heroes + перевод

The last of the Houston honky tonk heroes

Whispered goodbye to the footlights back in '93

She left the reverb a-ringin', but no one was singin'

She took a Greyhound and a Stetson to Laramie

Now I walk through this life a stumbler

But I come it honestly

And my rut is one of contradiction

Ain’t no other life, ain’t no other drive to suit me

And heroes can fall to pieces

Oh but pieces can shine just like gold

But you can’t pay time a ransom so you’ll never get your hands on

A piece of history, a perfect memory of a world long since gone

The last of the Houston honky tonk heroes

Whispered goodbye to the footlights back in '93

She left the reverb a-ringin', but no one was singin'

She took a Greyhound and a Stetson to Laramie

And I know that old west wind blows swiftly

'Cross the snowdrift of a frozen Mississippi

But that Gulf wind is churnin', it’ll soon be returnin'

To claim the dancehalls,, the juke joints and honky tonks

And bury my dreams in a slow-risin' sea

The last of the Houston honky tonk heroes

Whispered goodbye to the footlights back in '93

She left the reverb a-ringin', but no one was singin'

She took a Greyhound and a Stetson to Laramie
