Heaven, Hell, or Houston Lyrics

Artist: ZZ Top
Album: El Loco

Hello darling.
Surprised?
Yes, it's me again.
I have just returned from the island of Chandelier.
What am I doing in town?
Well, I'm glad you asked.
I'm just passing through in search of the ever elusive Thunderbird.

I got a job as a public relations man.
Passing out handbills on Austin Street.
Merely an effort to improve my financial situation,
And ward off a case of the D.T.'s

So farewell, my darling.
Perhaps we'll meet again
On some sin-infested street corner in Houston Texas.

One portion of the lyrics is wrong. It is ‘I have a job’, not, ‘I got a job.’ He also says ‘oh, God’ just before the solo begins.
