I was talking to a stranger in a fancy motor home
At a highway rest stop way out west of San Antone.
When I asked where he was headed he began to boast
He had left from Boston and was going coast-to-coast.
I could tell what he was thinkin' that I hadn't been around
When smugly asked me,"Have you been to my hometown?"
"No I've never been to Boston, but I've done some travelin too.
I've been to Turkey, Palestine and China, just to name a few.
I spent a week in Athens and saw Napels just this spring.
I've also visited Dublin and went to Paris for a fling.
But of all the places, the most fun I ever had
Was celebrating with some friends years ago in Trinidad."
I knew that I'd impressed him just by looking in his eyes
I must admit it felt real good to have cut him down to size.
So I says "Now I aint braggin, but I've been around, you bet.
But I have plenty more to see, cause I aint left Texas yet."
