Well, he out grew his sequin suit

Sold his Trailways bus

Let his hair get a little too long

Duck tails bit the dust

His custom made, pearl inlaid guitar

slipped from his hands

And in it's place a new electrical one

He had flown in from Japan



[Chorus:]

`Cause he's a cheeseburger eatin'

Abandoned Sunday meetin'

Brand new country star

He rides around in a Lincoln Continental

No steer horns on his car

Oh the record man say he's the livin' end

They're gonna spin him right to the top

Yea, he's a hot roman candle from the Texas panhandle



He can either go country or pop

Got a good ole' friend name of Texas Ben

Tells him all the spots to play

And a sweet little lady, he calls her sexy Sadie

She's with the boy night and day

They're gonna open up a chain of fancy bowling lanes

The first one in his old home town

And on ribbon cutting day they'll come from miles away

The folks will all gather round



[Chorus]
