lirik lagu east houston blues – rodney crowell

so i grew up hungry
and i grew up hard
took the streets and alleys
for my own backyard
i got a break-and-enter
on my list of crimes
been before the judge
one too many times

east houston blues
scale of one to ten
about a nine and a half
is where it’s always been
it’s in the drinking water
and in the bar ditch mud
east houston blues
gets in a poor boy’s blood

i learned to drink and drive
when i was twelve years old
my uncle, fireball stoddard
god rest his ragged soul
he run a ’54 ford
up and down the drag
sipping early times
straight from a paper bag

east houston blues
picture [dowling?] street
and navigation boulevard
where the crossroads meet
three sheets in the wind
[rich child load?]
east houston blues
down a nowhere road

forty dollar boots
big bangora hat
stolen money from an inside job
maybe think about that

i’m a third-born child
my mother’s only son
which means exactly nothing
without a loaded gn
i don’t believe luck
this i guarantee
if there’s a god above
he’s got it in for me

east houston blues
what do you want me to say?
i need to find me a woman
keep the wolves at bay
keep my head on straight
maybe tow the line
east houston blues
ain’t no friend of mine
so you understand
that of which i speak
i’m a worried man
on a losing streak
