Bilingual
I just met Huston, he was looking for your door
Said he'd like to buy a horse
I saw he had a map of the county in his hand
He had your house circled red
Cherokee is too damn far to come back by
And ol' Huston needs a ride
You just missed Huston, he was looking so confused
I guess he really needed you
He was old and tired and looking for the truth
I guess ol' Huston's got the blues
Cherokee is too damn far to go back dry
I promise Huston I'll try
You ain't giving up on looking for your thing
Even if you probably should
I'm sorry Huston, I ain't got what you need
But I promise you, I'd help you if I could
You ain't giving up on looking for your thing
Even if you probably should
I'm sorry Huston, I ain't got what you need
But I promise you, I'd help you if I could
Cherokee is too damn far to go back dry
