I should break with you know what I'll do I'll play a new song.
Oh that nobody would have ever heard
How's that that's fun top, but we like you even better.
What's gonna?
What's it gonna?
What's this is gonna be on some record I make [Em] someday
Well, I grew up hungry
And I grew apart
ran the streets and alleys
On my own backyard.
I got a break-in in
on my list of crimes
been before the judge
One too many times
[D] Each [Em] Houston blues
scale of one to ten
[E]
About a [Em] nine and a half
So it's always been
It's in a drinking water in the bar ditch mud
East Houston blues
It's in the poor boys blood.
I learned to drink and drive
When I was 12 years old
My uncle fireball stutter rest his ragged soul
[A] here in a 54
[Em]
foot up and down a drag
sipping early tires
straight from a paper bag
[D] East Houston [Em] blues
Picture Dowling Street and navigation Boulevard
[D] Where the [Em] crossroads meet?
[D] three sheets in [Em] a way
Brickshy below
East [D] Houston [Em] blue
down a nowhere

Paid for was stolen [G] money
How [Am] about that?
[D] [Em]
I'm a third war child
Father's only son
Which means exactly nothing?
without a loaded gun
I don't believe in love and I can guarantee
If there's a God above
He's got it in for me
[D] Each Houston [Em] blues
What [D] you want [Em] me to say?
I gotta find a woman
Keep the wolves at bay
Keep my head on straight
[D] Maybe tow the [Em] line
[D] Each Houston [Em] blues
Ain't no friend of mine
Well, [D] [Em]
