SxSW
by Dawson Smith

Well I woke up in London
In the early morning light
I woke up in London
In the early morning light
Had to keep on moving on
I had to make that overdue flight

High over the ocean
Could not believe I was finally gone
High over the ocean
Could not believe I was finally gone
I was intercontinental
I was going where it all came from

Soon as I touched down
I heard that music everywhere
Soon as I touched right down
I heard that music everywhere
The ghost of Stevie he was waiting
There was magic in the air

I went down to Antones
An old man shined my shoes
Then I knew I was standing
Right there in the home of the Blues
Finally made it to Austin

Been on 6th Street been on Highway 35
When you’re listening to the Blues
With a Shiner Bock
Man you know just how good it is
Just to be alive
