Written with Robert Hunter, it is a mid-tempo Texas song driven by accordion, the album's border-town sound at its plainest.
The words
A traveler offers advice to anyone heading to Houston and other Texas towns, remembering people and places he knew.
The singer speaks as someone who has been around Texas, handing out tips on how to carry yourself in Houston and asking to be remembered to people there. Between the advice come hints of an old love and unfinished business. It rolls along at an easy, swinging pace, and the accordion gives it the feel of a Tex-Mex dance hall, with Dylan sounding wry and worn.
