The wind it tends to blow a bit back home in Waco Texas
And I've been known to try and run it down
And I've got a pair of walkin' shoes that slip on mighty easy
So woman don't you try to tie me down
Tie me down
So woman don't you try to tie me down

I've seen the snow fall gentle up in Aspen Colorado
And I've seen the West Virginia leaves turn brown
And I've seen some rear-view mirrors with some cryin' women in ‘em
So woman don't you try to tie me down
Tie me down
So woman don't you try to tie me down

Don't look at me with family eyes it makes me feel uneasy
Your rope ain't strong enough to keep me bound
‘Cause I can run as fast as Chet Atkins picks a guitar
(Doo, doo, doo, doo, woman don't you tie me down, down, down...)
