I used to hold me a woman so dear
Till one day I found that she'd disappeared
To heaven, she'd gone and I'd hoped I was wrong, now I ain't
'Cuz I headed down to Texas
Yes I headed down to Texas
You see I ain't the first man to love me that woman
A tough one to win and even tougher to get over
But I got me my justice strapped here to my hip just for him
So I'm going down to Texas
Yes, I'm going down to Texas
Whiskey stoned as a mule raining thunder and pain
I'll make sure he never rides North again
Ol' San Antone is where that murderer lived
Kicked in on his door and who do I find him with?
My woman, my lady, my love, who I thought he'd killed
I found her with him in Texas
So I shot her down in Texas
Whiskey stoned as a mule raining thunder and pain
I made sure she'd never, fool me again
