I Can't Go Back To Austin - Doug Sahm

Well i was playing a job with the band\nAnd a real pretty girl led me by the hand\nAnd in a flash we were gone\nStayed at a motel til dawn\nI knew her old man was bad\nHe didn’t understand the fun we had\nI put that guitar player on the floor\nNow I can’t go back to austin anymore\nCant go back to austin anymore\nI don’t want to wind up punched out\nOn texas hardwood floors\nThat night she held my dreams\nShe was part of all my schemes\nI can’t go back to austin anymore\nWell i think of that girl now and then\nI think about the way things might have been\nOvernight texas haunts me in my dreams\nThat girl was part of all my schemes\nSomeday if i ever return\nBut until then my heart will burn\nThat girl she opened every door\nNow i can’t go back to austin anymore\nCant go back to austin anymore\nI don’t want to wind up punched out from texas hardwood floors\nThat night she held my dreams\nShe was part of all my schemes\nNow i can’t go back to austin anymore
