DEATH, TAXES AND TEXAS

DERYL DODD

ARLOS SMITH

Well I left my home by the Alamo
Ten years, three dogs, two wives ago
Lookin’ back at the plans I’ve made
Look nothin’ like the road I’ve paved
I’m goin’ back to where I’m from
My new plan is not havin’ one
Now I know the things that will remain

Chorus:
Death, taxes, and Texas
No matter where I roam
There ain’t no gettin’ away from
I’ve been lost but now I’ve found what I can’t live without in life is
Death, taxes and Texas

Now I work my fingers to the bone
What Uncle Sam don’t take I take home
It ain’t much but I don’t complain
Can’t take it with me anyway
What I got is all I need
Blue bonnets and blue skies to breathe
And three things that I know will never change

Repeat chorus
