It's been rough and rocky travelin'   But I'm finally standin' upright on the ground   After takin' several readings   I'm surprised to find my mind's still fairly sound      I guess Nashville was the roughest   But I know I've said the same about them all   We received our education   In the cities of the nation, me and Paul      Almost busted in Laredo   But for reasons that I'd rather not disclose   But if you're stayin' in a motel there and leave   Just don't leave nothin' in your clothes      And at the airport in Milwaukee   They refused to let us board the plane at all   They said we looked suspicious   But I believe they like to pick on me and Paul      Well it's been rough and rocky travelin'   But I'm finally standin' upright on the ground   And after takin' several readings   I'm surprised to find my mind's still fairly sound      Guess Nashville was the roughest   But I know I've said the same about them all   We received our education   In the cities of the nation, me and Paul      On a package show in Buffalo   Wth us and Kitty Wells and Charlie Pride   The show was long and we're just sittin' there   And we'd come to play and not just for the ride      Well we drank a lot of whiskey   So I don't know if we went on that night at all   But I don't think they even missed us   I guess Buffalo ain't geared for me and Paul      Well it's been rough and rocky travelin'   But I'm finally standin' upright on the ground   And after takin' several readings   I'm surprised to find my mind's still fairly sound      I guess Nashville was the roughest   But I know I've said the same about them all   We received our education   In the cities of the nation, me and Paul
