Kenny Rogers No Good Texas Rounder Lyrics

No Good Texas Rounder Lyrics

Excuse me, ma'am

I'd like your daughter's hand for the evening

There's a new band in town

I'd like to take her down to see 'em



The fiddler player used to be my neighbor

And he never slept a day in his life

He plays the, 'Strawberry Roan'

When he gets going he can play all night

And her mama said



He's a no good Texas cowboy, child

He'll love you up and he'll drive you wild

Then he'll leave you

He's a no good Texas rounder, girl



Got a one-track mind

And he ain't on true love and that's for sure

She said, "I've met his kind before

I've met your kind before"



Excuse me, ma'am

I'd like your daughter's hand for the evening

My intentions are good, I'm a man of honor

Please, ignore any rumors that have blackened my name



I'm just an innocent boy, how could I be to blame?

We'll be late for the show

And I took her hand and said let's go

And her mama said



He's a no good Texas cowboy, child

He'll love you up and he'll drive you wild

Then he'll leave you

He's a no good Texas rounder, girl



Got a one-track mind

And he ain't on true love and that's for sure

She said, "I've met his kind before

I've met your kind before"



Excuse me, ma'am

I'd like your daughter's hand for the evening

I think you know the band

I'd like to take her down to see 'em



I'd been led to understand the fiddler was your man

That's why he never slept a day in his life

He plays the, 'Strawberry Roan'

Just to get you going then you play all night

And the daughter said



He was a no good Texas Texas cowboy, child

He'll love you up and he'll drive you wild

Then he'll leave you

He's a no good Texas rounder, girl



Got a one-track mind

And he ain't on true love and that's for sure

She said, "I've met his kind before

I've met your kind before"
