Lord it's been rough and rocky travelin' 
But I'm finally standin' upright on the ground
After takin' several readings 
I'm surprised to find my mind's still fairly sound

I thought Nashville was the roughest
But I guess I've said the same about them all
       G7                                                           
Of one hell of an education in the cities of this nation
          C
Me and Tompall.

I got busted in Loredo 
For reasons that I'd rather not disclose
But if you're stayin' in a motel there and leave there
Don't leave nothin' in your clothes

At the airport in Milwaukee
They refused to let us board the plane at all
     G
They said we looked suspicious
                                         C
But I think they liked to pick on Me And Paul.

On a package show in Buffalo 
With us and Kitty Wells and Charley Pride
The show was long and I just hung around 
And I'd come there to pick not for the ride

We drank a lot of whiskey, so I ain't sure we went on that night at all
            G
But I don't think they even missed us
                                           C
I guess Buffalo ain't geared for Me and Tompall.
