By: Jimmy Buffett 1974 Intro: G D G C G Well he outgrew his sequined suit, sold his Trailways bus A Let his hair get a little too long D G D His ducktail's bit the dust C G His custom made, pearl-inlaid guitar slipped from his hand A D G D And in its place a new electrical one he had flown in from Japan Chorus: C 'Cause he's a cheeseburger eatin', abandoned Sunday meetin' G Brand new country star A He rides around in a Lincoln Continental D G D Those steer horns on his car C Oh, the record men say he's livin' end G They're gonna spin him right to the top A Yeah he's a hot roman candle from the Texas panhandle C D G He can either go country or pop Got a good old 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 bowlin' lanes The first one in his old hometown And on ribbon-cuttin' day they'll come from miles away The folks'll all gather 'round and sing (Repeat chorus) Enjoy!
