Somewhere Down in Texas – Jason Boland
I look south and see the storm clouds role, on their way from ‘ol Mexico
I don’t want to be alone
And the rays of light through my Shiner bock bottle
Made me want to turn on the key and put down the throttle
Get lost down 35
When I get tied down to the tides that bind
Seems like I’m never gonna find the time
To do what I need
That’s to find me a place where I can think
Talk about love and laugh and drink
And there’s someone there who cares
Cause no matter how big it storms
I know I can find me a place that’s warm
The sun is shinin’ somewhere in Texas
I hope its shinin’ on her
Somewhere down in Texas
In a place that big a man can get lost
Never find the time and forget about the cost
There’s more important things
She’s somewhere smilin’ north of San Antone
I’ve got her number but I stare at the phone
Cause I still want to believe
That no matter how big it storms
I know I can find me a place that’s warm
The sun is shinin’ somewhere in Texas
I hope its shinin’ on her
Somewhere down in Texas
To hell with horoscopes and empty dreams
To hell with Valentino and his cut of pair of jeans
Cause I know I can make it there
On a 12 pack and a prayer
Cause no matter how big it storms
I know I can find me a place that’s warm
The sun is shinin’ somewhere in Texas
I hope its shinin’ on her
Somewhere down in Texas
Down in Texas
Down in Texas
Somewhere down in Texas
