Lord, it's been rough and rocky travelin'   But I'm finally standing upright on the ground   After taking several readings   I'm surprised to find my mind's still fairly sound      I thought Nashville was the roughest   But I guess I've said the same about them all   Upon hell of an education in the cities   Of this nation me and Tompaul      I got busted in Laredo for reasons   That I'd rather not disclose   If you're stayin' in a motel there and leave there   Don't leave nothin' in your clothes      At the airport in Milwaukee   They refused to let us board the plane at all   They said we looked suspicious   But I think they like to pick on me and Paul      On a package show in Buffalo with us   And Kitty Wells and Charlie Pride   The show was long and I just hung around   And I'd come there to pick not for the ride      We drunk a lot of whiskey   So I ain't sure we went on that night at all   I don't think they even missed us   I guess Buffalo ain't geared for me and Tompaul
