[Verse 1]
Every immigrant town down here
Seems to grow a little every day
More and more are coming
Coming down south Texas way
You can see this place from space now
For sore eyes, it's a sight
We got the water tower
The camper van
The waving flag at night
[Chorus]
You got to get you a room
Get you a board
Go on down to that Eagle Ford
They got the milk and they got the honey
They got lots and lots of money, my Lord
[Guitar Break]
[Verse 2]
If you're a blue collar boy
We're gonna get you in a slicker suit
For all you white collar women
How about a company car and the moonroof
You don't need a hearing aid
To hear that south land boom
You just pack your bags wherever you are
And you lie down for the fume
[Chorus]
You got to get you a room
Get you a board
Go on down to that Eagle Ford
They got the milk and they got the honey
They got lots and lots of money, my Lord
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
Well I've been strapped in up
In San Antone
Trying to get a really good start
But you can't do jack these days
With a degree in the liberal arts
Given the economy I need to make a few dollars, make a few cents
Don't you know I'm getting pretty darn sick and tired of living with my parents
[Chorus]
I wanna get me a room
Get me a board
Go on down to that Eagle Ford
They got the milk and they got the honey
They got lots and lots of money
Gotta get you a room
Get you a board
Go on down to that Eagle Ford
They got the milk and they got the honey
They got lots and lots of money, my Lord
My Lord
My Lord
My Lord
[Chorus repeated]
Get you a room
Get you a board
Go on down to that Eagle Ford
They got the milk and they got the honey
They got lots and lots of money, my Lord
