Intro

Desert township, franchise night-shift

Small minds, blank eyes, big 'ol bank slips

I'll take big boy, he'll clean those drawers good

I'll get the safe while you start the car, pretty thing

Gimme a kiss and keep your foot on the gas now

'Cos all these people understand

Is a gun in their face or the cash in their hand

I wanna take you home and start a family, yeah

But all the stars in Texas ain't got nothin' on your eyes

 When you say, "Let's hit 'em one more time"

Motel bedside, Kansas sunlight

Tall grass, short dress, star-crossed hot night

Linens whisper, wrists-held-down love

Your daddy was a crooked soul with his heavy hand and bourbon cold

 I shot him dead, you hopped in, you were the prettiest thing I ever stole

And all these people understand

Is a gun in their face or the cash in their hand

I wanna take you home and start a family, yeah

But all the stars in Texas ain't got nothin' on your eyes

 When you say, "Let's hit 'em one more time"

We never shot a single one, they'd all been dead for years

And all these people understand

Is a gun in their face or the cash in their hand

I wanna take you home and start a family, yeah

Oh, all those stars in Texas, I'll steal 'em if you want 'em

Grab you by the hips, let's hit it baby one more time

 Let's see the good times, nice and slow
