about

I wrote this song about Texas

lyrics

I want to run down my shadow until I find some place
Where things are moving real slow and no one knows my name
Maybe Texas

Bandera sounds real nice, but then I might be found
Or Luchenback where the time stops and the country's playing loud
Maybe Austin, but then I'd be
Just another guitar on the street
Laredo is too far
And too close to where you are

But maybe some sun in that big Texas sky
Will help burn off all the lonely time passing by
I'll walk down that riverwalk
In old San Antone
But the ghosts of the Alamo
Sill haunt me on that road

Amarillo by morning and Dallas by Dusk
Houston's hot and busy so it's Big Bend or bust
The stars are getting brighter
As I keep traveling through
The city lights are getting smaller
As they fade in my rear view

These long wooden fences, the road ever winds
Framing a small town I'm longing to find
I'm damn sure determined
That I'm gonna roam
Until I find that far away
Place to call my home
