Everything's gonna be  alright
GI've been lost in Boston, Austin TCexas is always sweet 
I stCumbled around that TBbexas tAown but I nGever left Sixth Street 
You know it's Galways hard to keep my feet from trCyin' to run away 
And it sCeems I spent a lBbifetime trAyin' to mGake everything ok 
I wanna go dDown to see her shCe's my little qGueen 
I wanna go dDown to tell her shCe means the world to mGe 
I wish I was dDown to watch her plEmay that tambourine

I wGish sometimes that I could say she nCever told me so 
And I'd wCalk a million mBbiles on dAown the sGame old broken road 
Now yGou can always reap just what you sCew I know that's true 
And I prCay some day that I wBbake and mAy poor fGeet won't fit these shoes 
I wanna go dDown to see her shCe's my little qGueen 
I wanna go dDown to tell her shCe means the world to mGe 
I wish I was dDown to watch her plEmay that tambourine

 GIf I listen closely I can hCear it oh so clear 
Like a sCouth bound train like fBballin' rAain like a whGisper in my ear 
GEverything I'd like to hear I dCon't hear much no more 
But I knCow someday that you'll cBbome my wAay and you'll wGalk right thru that door 
I wanna go dDown to see her shCe's my little qGueen 
I wanna go dDown to tell her shCe means the world to mGe 
I wish I was dDown to watch her plEmay that tambourine
