    I'll Never Go To Texas Anymore

    If you like Led Zeppelin for no other reason, at least like them 'cuz they put that line in one of my favorite songs.

    Well I just got into town today
    To find my girl has gone away
    She took the Greyhound at the General Store
    I searched myself I searched the town
    When I finally did sit down
    I find myself no wiser than before

    She said we couldn't do no wrong
    No other love could be so strong
    She locked up my heart in her bottom drawer
    Now she took my heart she took my keys
    From in my old blue dungarees
    And I'll never go to Texas anymore

    * Chorus: Now my baby's gone I don't know what to do
    She took my love and walked right out the door
    And if I ever find that girl I know one thing for sure
    I'm gonna give her something like she never had before

    I took her love at seventeen
    A little late these days it seems
    But they said heaven is well worth waiting for
    I took her word I took it all
    Beneath the sign that said "U-haul"
    She left angels hangin round for more

    Chorus

    I thought I had it all sewn up
    Our love, a plot, a pick-up truck
    But folks said she was after something more
    I never did quite understand
    All that talk about rockin' bands
    But they just rolled my doll right out the door
    Oh yeah, they just rolled my doll right out the door!

    I thought this thread was going to be about how the Dallas police are arresting hotel guests in the hotel bars for public intoxication.

    HOT DOG!
    I got a bad mustache
    a recurring rash
    and not a lot of cash.
    I spend it on my stash.
    Man it's good to be a geek!

    That album had the black and white record jacket that you could wipe with a wet cloth and it would turn into a "color jacket"

    I saw the thread title and thought gdc started it...
    at this point in the process, I can only assume it was a typo and they meant to say "cram"...

    that was the album sleeve.

    the album came wrapped in paper bag wrapping with a generic postal stamp on it. to Prophet's question, there were four versions of the cover pic. from different perspectives of the same bar scene.....something like that.

    one of the first records i bought with my own money. that, and the white album.

    The CD cover has three different perspectives....and a couple of drawings, looks like.
