Cold Knees Or Alice

Think I'll spend the Winter in Dallas These Northern climes are hard on my knees It's been a while since I've seen Alice She's always been so easy to please These Northern Climes are hard on my knees It would be nice to see her again She's always been so easy to please Told her I'd be back, couldn't say when It would be nice to see her again Maybe we'll dance 'til the early dawn Told her I'd be back, couldn't say when Saddled my hoss and then I was gone Maybe we'll dance 'til the early dawn Wonder if she's still glad to see me - Saddled my hoss and then I was gone Hope she ain't mad, but then it could be Wonder if she's still glad to see me - I can picture that smile on her face Hope she ain't mad, but then it could be Without her this ain't much of a place I can picture that smile on her face - She packs a pistol in her left boot Without her this ain't much of a place As I recall she really can shoot She packs a pistol in her left boot Maybe come winter I should stay here As I recall she really can shoot I gotta choose 'tween cold knees and fear Maybe come Winter I should stay here It's been awhile since I've seen Alice I gotta choose 'tween cold knees and fear Think I'll spend the Winter in Dallas April 12, 2016
