	作词 : Keen, Lovett
	This old porch is like a big old red and white hereford bull
	Standing under a mesquite tree
	Out in agua dulce
	And he just keeps on playing hide and seek
	With that hot august sun
	Just a-sweatin' and a-pantin'
	Cause his work is never done
	And this old porch is like a steaming, greasy plate of enchiladas
	With lots of cheese and onions
	And a guacamole salad
	And you can get'em down at the lasalle hotel
	In old downtown
	With iced tea and a waitress
	And she will smile every time
	And this old porch is the palace walk-in
	On the main street of texas
	That's never seen the day
	Of g and r and xs
	With that '62 poster
	That's almost faded down
	And a screen without a picture
	Since giant came to town
	And this old porch is like a weathered, gray-haired
	Seventy years of texas
	Who's doing all he can
	Not to give in to the city
	And he always takes the rent late
	So long as i run his cattle
	And he picks me up at dinnertime
	And i listen to him rattle
	He says the brazos still runs muddy
	Just like she's run all along
	And there ain't never been no cane to grind
	The cotton's all but gone
	And you know this brand new chevrolet
	Hell it was something back in '60
	But now there won't nobody listen to him
	'cause they all think he's crazy
	And this old porch is just a long time
	Of waiting and forgetting
	And remembering the coming back
	And not crying about the leaving
	And remembering the falling down
	And the laughter of the curse of luck
	From all of those passerby
	Who said we'd never get back up
	This old porch is just a long time
	Of waiting and forgetting
	And remembering the coming back
	And not crying about the leaving
	And remembering the falling down
	And the laughter of the curse of luck
	From all of those sons-of-bitches
	Who said we'd never get back up
