Jimmy Buffett - Livingston's Gone to Texas lyrics

By: Jimmy Buffett

1971

Nothing here is different

Nothing's changed at all

And Livingston's gone to Texas

They say he had a ball

They say he learned to be a cowboy

They say he learned to rope and ride

But I wonder if he ever

Thinks about the tears his woman cried

Now Holly won't you let me

Try and make you smile

Now you loved him as if he were your husband

Now he'll be gone awhile

Wrote he had to see the the country

On starry nights he wished that you were there

And so it shows wherever he goes

Deep inside you know he really cares

It's crazy and it's different

But it's really being free

And reasons the world would want to question

Make sense to you and me

Nothing here is different

Nothing's changed at all

Livingston's still in Texas

The snow's about to fall
