Well, he out grew his sequin suit
sold his trailways bus
let his hair get a little too long
duck tails bit the dust
his custom made, pearl inlaid guitar
slipped from his hands
and in it's place a new electrical one
he had flown in from japan
Chorus
`cause he's a cheeseburger eatin'
abandoned sunday meetin'
brand new country star
he rides around in a lincoln continental
no steer horns on his car
oh the record man say he's the livin' end
they're gonna spin him right to the top
yea, he's a hot roman candle from the texas panhandle
He can either go country or pop
got a good ole' friend name of texas ben
tells him all the spots to play
and a sweet little lady, he calls her sexy sadie
she's with the boy night and day
they're gonna open up a chain of fancy bowling lanes
the first one in his old home town
and on ribbon cutting day they'll come from miles away
the folks will all gather round
