That Girl in Texas - Jon Wolfe

I woke up this morning not feeling right

It wasn’t the beer that I drank last night

It’s the state I’m in

I just know I’m not where I’m meant to be

I heard a southern wind calling out to me

«Go back home again!»

Now I’m standing at the lonely end of the path I chose

And I can’t stop thinking about the things I miss the most

Might be those Saturday nights and the honky tonks and the rodeos

Or the way the sun sets in the hills of San Antonio

Might be the dust from my boots

The miles of fence line

That old Rio Grande or the wide open sky

But my best guess is it’s that girl in Texas

I spend all day packing up my truck

My boss forgot to wish me luck when I said «So long»

It’s high time I undo my mistake

So I’ll drive all night down that interstate

Till I’m all the way gone

I know deep down in my heart it’s what I’ve gotta do

And if anyone ask me what I’m most looking forward to

Yeah!

Might be those Saturday nights and the honky tonks and the rodeos

Or the way the sun sets in the hills of San Antonio

Might be the dust from my boots

The miles of fence line

That old Rio Grande or the wide open sky

But my best guess is it’s that girl in Texas

Yeah I came way to see her smile and face

And I couldn’t tell you why I ever left that place

I miss those Saturday nights and the honky tonks and the rodeos

And the way the sun sets in the hills of San Antonio

Her beautiful smile, bright blue eyes

Holding her close in the moonlight

What I miss most is that girl in Texas

What I love most is that girl in Texas

That girl in Texas
