Lyrics:

I remember the Alamo, I don't recall who won They had swords, they had horses, I hear we had mighty guns Like the ones from Navarone last night on Channel 21 It's a long way back to El Paso. It was early Monday morning in the Central Standard Zone You were quiet like the TV, hung up like the telephone You were sleeping next to me, I might as well have been alone It's a long way back to El Paso. CHORUS And if my heart was a car, you would have stripped it a long time ago. And if my heart was a car, you would have stripped it a long time ago. And if my heart was a car You would have stripped it down and sold it off To the greasy man in the salvage lot As it is it's just a heart No, no, it ain't worth nothin'. I ain't talkin' bout tomorrow, I'm talkin' 'bout tonight You told me you were drunk already, that don't make it right You want at me, well, have at it, 'cause I'm in the mood to fight And it's a long way back to El Paso. And if my heart was a car, you would have stripped it a long time ago. And if my heart was a car, you would have stripped it a long time ago. And if my heart was a car, you would have stripped it a long time ago. And if my heart was a, And if my heart was a, And if my heart was a car, (Repeat Chorus)
