Everything In Texas

I’ve never been to Texas, but I hear that it’s okay; Got the word from a Texan, who drifted far away. He spoke with easy feelings, with a sparkle in his eye, When he told me of Texas, how the sun sets in the sky.

I didn’t want to bug him, for his reasons why he left; I could see he had his pride, and was living with regret. But I just had to ask him, of all the stories I heard, He said, “Son, no stories, you can believe every word.” (voice change)

“Everything in Texas is so much bigger than life, The air so humid, you can cut it with a knife. Highways all go straight, and there ain’t a tree in sight. You don’t ask questions, in the middle of the night. Everything in Texas is so much bigger than life.”

“The music in Texas, will make you cry in your beer; They don’t have Top 40, you hear the same songs all year. The people are crazy, they always think they’re right; Better mind your manners, ’cause the cowboys love to fight.

Everything in Texas is so much bigger than life.”

It didn’t sound like heaven; it was more the tone of hell. The Texan kept on talking, he was as clear as a bell. Then he popped a grin, sure enough, he cracked a smile. He burst out laughing, and said, “It’s been awhile.”

Bridge “It’s so good to tell someone, who has never seen the state Of all the natural beauty, the things that make it great. You can stop all the rumors, just tell your friends the facts, You heard it from a Texan, whose heart is aching to go back.”

At first I thought the reason, he left was for his health. Then I started thinking, that I should go there myself. I wasn’t born yesterday, oh, I learned from my youth, The way to keep a secret, is by stretching the truth.

The Texan told me stories, so I would stay away, Gave me the wrong idea, to make me glad to stay. He gave away the secret, when he remembered with a sigh He couldn’t hide his feelings, or the sparkle in his eye. Saying….

“Everything in Texas is so much bigger than life, The air so humid, you can cut it with a knife. Highways all go straight, and there ain’t a tree in sight. You don’t ask questions in the middle of the night. Everything in Texas is so much bigger than life.
