Somewhere Down in Texas

When I look south and see the storm clouds roll
On their way to old Mexico
I don't wanna be alone
And the rays of light through a Shiner Bock bottle
Make me wanna turn the key and put down the throttle
And get lost down 35

When I get tied down by the ties that bind
Seem like I'm never gonna find the time
To do what I need
And 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
Mm-hm, I hope it's shinin' on her
Somewhere down in Texas

In a place that big, a man could get lost
Never mind the time, forget about the cost
There's more important things

She's somewhere smilin' north of San Antone
And 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
Mm-hm, I hope it's shinin' on her
Somewhere down in Texas

To hell with horoscopes and empty dreams
To hell with Valentino and his cut-off 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
Mm-hm, I hope it's shinin' on her
Somewhere down in Texas

Down in Texas
Down in Texas (down in Texas)
Somewhere down in Texas
