Songs

if I left my heart in San Francisco
but I'm in Luckenbach, Texas
if Chicago is my kind of town
but I need to please come to Boston
if by the time I get to Phoenix
I'm on a corner in Winslow, Arizona
if I shuffle off to Buffalo
can I catch the last train to Clarksville
if all of my ex's live in Texas
but I'm wasted in Margaritaville 
if everything spins--like the quarter that flips
or much quicker than a New York minute
if you can figure this all out, remember these old tunes
I think that you can catch my drift and where all this was going
