The only two things in life that make it worth livin'
is guitars that tune good and firm feelin' women,
I don't need my name in the marquee lights,
I got my song and I got you with me tonight,
Maybe it's time we got back to the basics of love,

Let's go to Luckenbach, Texas,
With Waylon and Willie and the boys,
This successful life we're livin' got us
feudin' like the Hatfields and Mc)Coys,
Between Hank William's pain songs and Newberry's train songs,
And "Blue Eyes Cryin' in the Rain,"
Out in Luckenbach, Texas,
ain't nobody feelin' no pain,

So baby, let's sell your diamond ring,
Buy some boots and faded jeans and go away,
This coat and tie is chokin' me;
in your high society, you cry all day,
We've been so busy keepin' up with the Jones'-
four-car garage, and we're still buildin' on,
Maybe it's time we got back to the basics of love,
