San Antone
Randy Rogers Band
Album Nothing Shines Like Neon
[Verse 1]
This highway’s sure been good to me
White lines as far as you can see
There’s a girl from down around Poteet
Wants to meet me down on Frio Street
[Chorus]
San Antone, San Antone
I been gone for way too long
But you gotta go when you gotta go
Like Crockett at the Alamo
Ya’ll can find me down in San Antone
[Verse 2]
Where I come from, those cowboys know
Just how to roll right with the flow
Shiner Bock and dominoes
And Reckless on the radio
[Chorus]
San Antone, San Antone
I been gone for way too long
But you gotta go when you gotta go
Like Crockett at the Alamo
Ya’ll can find me down in San Antone
[Verse 3]
Once I reach that Frio Street
Gonna kiss the ground beneath my feet
Then find a band with a fiddle man
And dance to every song I can
[Chorus]
San Antone, San Antone
I been gone for way too long
But you gotta go- when you gotta go
Like Crockett at the Alamo
Ya’ll can find me down in San Antone
[Outro]
Someday when you lay me low
Like Crockett at the Alamo
Lay me down in San Antone
From the 1st time I saw the lyrics of that song, I was pretty sure no one in their right mind would meet a girl or anyone else on Frio street-especially after dark and unarmed-not a good place...
But Poteet is a nice country town...
