It was the dead of summer, I was only 19

We caught a Greyhound bus for a non-stop trip

Shuffled back to the back where the AC is and it's cold as a crypt
C G Em
Two seats up sat a man in a hoodie, who looked at me like modern death

I may never know why, but within the hour, that poor man was dead
N.C.
And I said this prayer, I said, "Lord ..."

Don't let me die in Waco, anywhere but there

I'd sooner die a sooner or a dumbass Aggie than to go

In the land of the Baylor Bear

Still searching for a lively weekend

Some lucky cuss had gone out partying

Just the night before

A drunken fall from a balcony that took a frat boy's life

His friends were all in mourning until we arrived

I said, "It could be a whole lot worse, friends

For he died as he lived
G D
A Longhorn proud, in Bevo's name
C D G
Hook 'em, amen"
