Tumbleweed Town Music Lyrics

He said I'm goin' to west Texas

I said hell you've gone crazy

Ain't nothing' out there but coyotes and Comanches

But he headed out anyways as far as he could

He'd finally buried his roots



He sold whiskey and cigars to passing through settlers

But nobody wants to settle where there ain't no damn water

Then they figured out a windmill could pump it from the ground

And up sprang a tumbleweed town



Where the lonely wind blows like it's angry for being there

A flat piece of stone in the middle of nowhere

The town never grows cause nobody can keep their roots down

It's just a tumbleweed town



They came in like gypsies to steal the black gold

The town's population increased a hundred fold

But they scattered like quail when the oil wells ran out

And left no trace of the riches they'd found



Then some big shot from Dallas built a factory out here

Gonna put us back on the map

But hell that was back a few years

Now weeds have grown up and the buildings falling down

You'd think they'd figured out by now

It's just a tumbleweed town



Where the lonely wind blows like it's angry for being there

A flat piece of stone in the middle of nowhere

The town never grows cause nobody can keep their roots down

It's just a tumbleweed town



A few hayseeds and ranchers still hanging in

Too old to start over to damn stubborn to quit

And their kids all get restless waiting for a Greyhound

So they can get the hell out of this tumbleweed town



Tumbleweed town
