[Verse]
A D A
The Lone Star Hotel Cafe is nothing but a dive,
D A E
and Florence Smith showed up there Lord, every day at five
A
Florence was a waitress
D
Have I mentioned that before?
A E A
Serving beer to strangers and to some she'd seen before
[Verse]
D G Bm D
Florence used to ride a little Apaloosa mare
A
In the barrel race at the rodeo, she had that beehive hair
D G D
There's a picture of her on the wall, as you pay your check
G D A D
Lord, didn't she look good back in nineteen fifty six?
[Verse]
A E A D A
I was loving Florence and she was ignoring me
D A E
Florence had experience, it was the first time out for me
A D A
Lord, I tried to tell her, but the only words I found
D A E A
Were "Give me greasy enchiladas and a beer to wash it down"
[Verse]
D G Bm D
Florence quit the Lone Star Hotel, and never was seen again
A
And me, I quit west Texas, and I ain't been back since then
D A D G Bm D
That was years ago, Lord, too many to recall?
G D A Bm D
But I remember Florence and them pictures on the wall
[Verse]
A D A
So here's to you west Texas, you old rodeo queen
D A E
How I miss your beer joints and shuffle board machines
A D A
Here's to you west Texas, how I miss the smell
D A E A
Of greasy enchiladas, at the old Lone Star Hotel
