Joe's gone ridin, ridin on the rail Joe's gone ridin, he'll be on your trail Don't try to fight him , you're only gonna fail Joe's gone ridin ,ridin' on the rail From the cotton fields of Tx, down to the Rio Grande He's a gypsy cowboy who always takes a stand he hustled pool, hopped the train, headed down to San Antone a restless heart, he lives life down to the bone 5 card gamble at the Boomtown saloon he always plays to win while howling at the moon tequila, wine, fists are flyin' and I'm caught in a mess but I love to play the part of the damsel in distress When you plead and you cry and they just won't let you by But if Joe says then Joe says Tumbleweed, devil dye & they spit between your eyes But if Joe says then Joe says There ain't no openin' band for no wine festival but if Joe says, Joe says Don't mess with Texas or a green eyed girl. Don't penalize my case just cuz I defend my world gotta speak your mind with every breath, fight for what you believe I just wanna live a life without that human greed
