THEM TEXAS FIELDS
WERE HOT
AND THAT TRACTOR
NEVER WAS
MY KIND OF LIVING

AND I'M GLAD
I WASN'T THERE
TO SEE MY MAMA
'CAUSE SHE MUST HAVE
CRIED FOR HOURS

I STILL HEAR HER SAYING
GARY
GET YOUR GUITAR
AND PICK THE
UVILDWOOD FLOWER

NOW DALLAS IT WAS BIG
AND HARD TO FIND A JOB

AND SO I DIDN'T
IT WAS EASIER T0 HITCH
A RIDE T0 HOUSTON
AND IT WAS
MORE LIKE LIVING

AND IF THEY HAD
AN HOUR OR A DIME
I WOULD PICK
THE UVILDWOOD FLOWER

ITS HARD TO TURN
AROUND
AND LOOK BACK DOWN
THE ROADS
THAT I HAVE TRAVELED

'CAUSE LIKE A
NEVER-ENDING BALL
0F TWINE
MY DREAMS HAVE COME
UNRAVELED

AND NOW AS EVENING
LAYS ITS SHAWL
ACROSS THE SHOULDERS
OF MY LIFE
I HAVE TO FIND

I COULDN'T TIE MY LIFE
TOGETHER
WITH GUITAR STRINGS
AND A POET'S
HEART-FELT LINE

AND I'M SO GLAD
I WASN'T THERE
TO SEE MY MAMA
'CAUSE SHE MUST HAVE
CRIED FOR HOURS

I STILL HEAR HER SAYING
GARY
GET YOUR GUITAR
AND PICK
THE UVILDWOOD FLOWER
