Last night I had me a nightmare   Dreamed that Texas was burning down burning down   And all them people, I had grown up to love   Leaving town      I cried "oh Holy Moses, bring blood to the Red Red Sea   Bring back Townes Van Zandt, and my heroes back to me   Because I can play their songs, but it ain't they way they do   It ain't they way they do."   I had a nightmare, a nightmare, it was a nightmare      Buddy Holly was riding on the wind   Stevie Ray, well he was too   When their star, come tumbling to the ground   Wasn't a thing that all the king's horses   And all the king's men could do   Me I've just got my ol' bar stool      And man it's burning me down burning me down   Just like a brush fire, that burns on through the night   One of these days I'm just going   These days I'm going to burn on out
