Lyrics:

Well, it's lonesome in this old town
Everybody puts me down
I'm a face without a name
Just walking in the rain
I'm goin' back to Houston, Houston, Houston
I got holes in both of my shoes
Like I'm a walking case of the blues
I saw a dollar yesterday
But the wind blew it away
I'm goin' back to Houston, Houston, Houston
I haven't eaten in about a week
I'm so hungry when I walk, I squeak
Nobody calls me friend
It's sad the shape I'm in
I'm goin' back to Houston, Houston, Houston

I got a gal waiting there for me
At least she said she'd be
I've got a house and a bed
And a feather pillow for my head
I'm goin' back to Houston, Houston, Houston
Well, it's lonesome in this old town
Everybody put me down
I'm a face without a name
Just walking in the rain
I'm goin' back to Houston, Houston, Houston
I'm goin' back to Houston, Houston, Houston
I'm goin' back to Houston, Houston, Houston
