I look south and see the strom coluds role, on their way from 'ol mexico
i don't wanna be alone
and the rays of light through my shinnerbock bottle
made me wanna turn on the key and put down the throddle
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
thats to find me a place where i can think
talk about love and laugh and drink
and theres someone there who cares

cause no matter how big it storms
i know i can find me a place thats 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




theres more important things
shes 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 thats warm
the sun is shinin somewhere in texas
i hope its shinin on her
somwhere 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 thats warm
the sun is shinin somewhere in texas
i hope its shinin on her
somwhere down in texas
down in texas
down in texas
somwhere down in texas
