London Homesick Blues
Gary P. Nun
  
  G
 Well, when you're down on your luck,

and you ain't got a buck,
  D
in London you're a goner.

Even London Bridge has fallen down,
   G
and moved to Arizona,
          C
now I know why.

And I'll substantiate the rumor that the English sense of humor
  G
is drier than than the Texas sand.

You can put up your dukes, and you can bet your boots
        D
that I'm leavin' just as fast as I can.

Chorus
 G         C             G    Am
 I wanna go home with the armadillo
            C              D            G
Good country music from Amarillo and Abilene
 C                        D
The friendliest people and the prettiest women you've ever 

seen.

  G
 Well, it's cold over here, and I swear
 D
I wish they'd turn the heat on.

And where in the world is that English girl 
 G                                  C             
I promised I would meet on the third floor.

And of the whole damn lot, the only friend I've got
    G
is a smoke and a cheap guitar.

My mind keeps roamin', my heart keeps longin'
     D
to be home in a Texas bar.

Chorus

G
 Well, I decided that I'd get my cowboy hat
      D
and go down to Marble Art Station.

'Cause when a Texan fancies, he'll take his chances.
 G                                C
 Chances will be taken, that's for sure.

And them Limey eyes, they were eyein' the prize
         G
that some people call manly footwear.

And they said you're from down South,

and when you open your mouth,
   D
you always seem to put your foot there.


Repeat chorus till the cows come home
