Well I wish I was in Austin, mmhmm
At the chili parlor bar, Drinkin' Mad Dog Margaritas
And not carin' where you are
But here I am in Dublin, mmhmm
Rollin' cigarettes, Holdin' back and chokin' back
The shakes with every breath
So Forgive me all my anger
Forgive me all my faults
There's no need to forgive me
For thinkin' what I thought
I loved you from the git go
And I'll love you till I die
I loved you on the Spanish steps
The day you said goodbye
I am just a poor boy, mmhmm
Work's my middle name
If money was a reason, I would not be the same
I'll stand up and be counted, mmhmmm
I'll face up to the truth
I'll walk away from trouble, But I can't walk away from you
So Forgive me all my anger
Forgive me all my faults
There's no need to forgive me, For thinkin' what I thought
I loved you from the git go
And I'll love you till I die
I loved you on the Spanish steps
The day you said goodbye
I have been to Fort Worth, mmhmm
And I have been to Spain
And I have been to proud, To come in out of the rain
I have seen the David, mmhmm
I've seen the Mona Lisa too
And I have heard Doc WatsonPlay Columbus Stockade Blues
So Forgive me all my anger
Forgive me all my faults
There's no need to forgive me
For thinkin' what I thought
I loved you from the git go,
And I'll love you till I die
I loved you on the Spanish steps
The day you said goodbye
Well I wish I was in Austin, mmhmm
In a chili parlor bar
Drinkin' Mad Dog Margaritas
And not carin' where you are
