Lyrics:

She's a barmaid in a west Texas dance hall She's there ev'ry night till they close And the cowboy's pay for the jukebox And she plays “San Antonio Rose” Well I know her life ain't been easy And the lines in her face say it all But she still is a beautiful woman In the lights of the Texas dance hall CHORUS: But she won't sit down at your table And I know that you can't hold her hand She won't go home with you cowboy She's in love with a rodeo man Well he's hard and he's scarred and he's grayin' And he's stoned most all of the time And he drinks at a dark corner table And he waits there until closin' time
