To Keep From Being Found

Hayes Carll, Pat McLaughlin

[Verse 1]
I bought myself a tall boy
And some cigarettes
I'm gonna climb into this old truck
And get as far as I can get
Go looking for a motel room
One with an actual key
The old kind
I used to find
Where you pay by the week

[Verse 2]
Gonna hang up a couple pictures
Above that rotary phone
The one on which I'm not expecting
Too many calls from home
Gonna find me a movie
One that makes me laugh
Roll around that old TV
So I can watch it in the bath

[Chorus]
I can't remember where I had my breakfast
Probably some old run-down diner
In a broken motor town
But I ain't ever going back to Texas
I'll pay the cost
Of bеing lost
Just to keep from being found

[Verse 3]
I really like my lawyеr
He's a hell of a guy
He spreads the love
And he ain't above
Watching a grown man cry
I don't have to worry
'Bout whose side he's on
He'll be my friend
Until the end
Or 'til the money's all gone

[Chorus]
I can't remember where I had my breakfast
Maybe Southeast Oklahoma
Or some backwoods Arky town
But I ain't ever going back to Texas
There's a girl down there in Texas
Who does not want me around

[Outro]
I ain't ever going back to Texas
I'll pay the cost
Of being lost
Just to keep from being found
