Published 1987 by Squeezemovan Music/BMI
Words and Music by R. C. Banks and Ponty Bone
Well, you go to Lubbock,
You won't find me there
You can search all over Flat Town,
You won't find me there
Got my four-piece combo, you can
Dig us on the road somewhere.
I had a real good job
At Modern Chevrolet
I had a real good job
At Modern Chevrolet.
I told the boss the truth, he said
"Get that boy his drag-up pay".
Then I missed three payments
And they come picked up my truck
Only three little payments
They come picked up my pickup truck.
Well, it's another hot summer,
Another brother walkin' to work.
It's a terrible thing
'Bout the high West Texas plains
Yeah, a terrible thing
'Bout the high West Texas plains-
Flat Town Boogie all night, and
The Flat Town blues all day.
You can go to Lubbock
You won't find me there
Search all over Slaton,
You won't find me there
Got my axe out the pawn shop,
Squeeze it 'round the world somewhere.
