[intro] [harmonica saxophone]
[verse]
Dusty boots on the Jersey line
Harmonica wails through the midnight whine
One job gone but the next one fine
East to West where the road signs shine
[verse]
Made some friends along the way
sang a few songs to get the pay
[chorus]
It's a long way from east coast to west pier
Big wheels humming loud and clear
Not all gold and not all fear
Just a tale worth a bottle of beer
[verse]
Chicago nights and desert dawn
Trap drums beat where the coyotes yawn
Pawn shop grace with a broken guitar
Singing my way to a Hollywood star
[pre-chorus]
Harmonica cries in the neon light
Crowd gets wild gonna start a fight
Saddle my horse I'm ready to ride
Slipping right out the bar's back side
[chorus]
It's a long way from east coast to west pier
Big wheels humming loud and clear
Not all gold and not all fear
Just a tale worh a bottle of beer
[verse]
Denver chill and L.A. heat
Gulf Coast boys with stories sweet
Some play fair some cheat
Road don't care who you meet
[Bridge]
I’m the Gulf Coast Cowboy
Come on over and grab a seat
I have one hella off story
But it will cost you a bottle of Beer
[Harmonica guitar back-and-forth duet]
[chorus]
It's a long way from east coast to west pier
Big wheels humming loud and clear
Not all gold and not all fear
Just a tale worth a bottle of beer
[chorus]
It's a long way from pier to pier
Steel wheels humming in my ear
Not all gold and not all fear
Just a tale worth a bottle of beer
[outro]
