His necktie is bright red From lookin' in one direction No flowerchild in his bed He's got oil well protection Just had to be a blind dog Chewin' on everything Took a slice of the blackbird pie She began her singing
I know that your oil is black But your dipstick is pearly white Ten gallons on your head That ain't what I need tonight
Showdown at the border Showdown at the border Showdown at the border
The rendezvous was neutral He don't want no gossip headlines Her polaroid blackmail He said,"No way I've had mine" Just too much for him to lose Because of some Cuervo passion Cold, cold forty-five, answered in Texas fashion
I know that your oil is black But the dipstick is pearly white Ten gallons on your head That ain't what I need tonight
Showdown at the border Showdown at the border Showdown at the border
Bright red went to his head Tequila tension rising
This is no business for the weak at heart This is no business for those with a Nervous disposition
Tanned man from the f.e.d.'s Cool mohair buying off the squeeze
Showdown at the border
