[Verse 1]
Gm7                                              Eb  Ebmaj7  Cm D
Me and my friends went to Dixieland, and we drove an R.V.
       Am7                     D7      C      Bb      Gm   Gm7
With a cabinet full of mushrooms and a cooler full of beer
Gm7                                                 Eb  Ebmaj7  Cm D
It was springtime in the mountains when we headed out of town
       Am7                     D7      C      Bb      Gm   Gm7
The peaks were white, the sky was blue, and the sun was beatin' down

Gm7                                              Eb  Ebmaj7  Cm D
We were rollin' down the highway just havin' a little fun
       Am7                   D7      C      Bb      Gm   Gm7
Sure can drink a lot of beer underneath that Texas sun
Gm7                                                          Eb  Ebmaj7  Cm D
So I pulled into a liquor store -- that's where the trouble all began
       Am7                     D7      C      Bb      Gm   Gm7
Cause I ran into their awning, and we had a run-in with The Man

[Chorus]
Cm                  D
  Get me outta this small town Texas town
G                                  E
Cause I don't wanna be stuck in jail
           E7       Am      Am7               D7
  When the sun goes down -- you can't bust me
           C       Bb         G    Cm D7
If you don't know what you found

[Verse 2]
Gm7                                                        Eb  Ebmaj7  Cm D
Well, I got to talk with the girl inside I even offered her some cash
       Am7                                           D7      C      Bb      Gm   Gm7
But she wouldn't listen - she was callin' the cops, cause her gutter had been smashed
Gm7                                                            Eb  Ebmaj7  Cm  D
And next thing I knew when I walked outside,there were police all around
Well, I got to talk with the girl inside I even offered her some cash
       Am7                                           D7      C      Bb      Gm   Gm7
Askin', who was drivin' the vehicle - can I see your license? What you doin' in our town?

[Chorus]
Cm                  D
  Get me outta this small town Texas town
G                                 E
Cause I don't wanna be stuck in jail
           E7       Am      Am7               D7
  When the sun goes down -- you can't bust me
           C       Bb         G    Cm D7
If you don't know what you found

[Verse 3]
Gm7                                                                       Eb  Ebmaj7  Cm D
We were sittin' on the steps of the liquor store, just tryin' not to look too scared
       Am7                                      D7      C      Bb     Gm   Gm7
They were searchin' the RV and I was thinkin', sometimes life just isn't fair
Gm7                                                  Eb  Ebmaj7  Cm D
When they opened up that cabinet - they found our little stash
       Am7                                       D7      C      Bb      Gm   Gm7
But they didn't know what it was and let us go, minus eighty bucks in Cash

[Chorus]
Cm                  D
  Get me outta this small town Texas town
G                                  E
Cause I don't wanna be stuck in jail
          E7       Am      Am7            D7
When the sun goes down -- you can't bust me
           C       Bb         G    Cm D7
If you don't know what you found

Cm                  D
Get me outta this small town Texas town
G                                  E
I been running since my feet hit the ground
      E7       Am      Am7            D7
You can't bust me
           C       Bb         G    Cm D7
Cause you don't know what you found
