West of Houston (Bonus Track)
He'd never been west of Houston
That's what he wrote me long ago
Said he'd been longing for the mountains
The ones all dusted in snow
He couldn't get off the cocaine
He was a real outlaw
From all the nights with the women
And that ole southern drawl
Now he's down in the gutter
Selling his soul for a song
Lost my mind a thousand times below the Mason-Dixon
Trying to find my way back home to you
Never could deny that I was blind to what the truth is
Going for a ride west of Houston
Midnight on the highway
Wishing he could drive up to the moon
He never thought about his mother
And that was nothing new
Now he's down in the gutter
Selling his soul for a song
Lost my mind a thousand times below the Mason-Dixon
Trying to find my way back home to you
Never could deny that I was blind to what the truth is
Going for a ride west of Houston
Lost my mind a thousand times below the Mason-Dixon
Trying to find my way back home to you
Never could deny that I was blind to what the truth is
Going for a ride west of Houston
Going for a ride west of Houston
Going for a ride west of Houston
Going for a ride west of Houston
That's what he wrote me long ago
Said he'd been longing for the mountains
The ones all dusted in snow
He couldn't get off the cocaine
He was a real outlaw
From all the nights with the women
And that ole southern drawl
Now he's down in the gutter
Selling his soul for a song
Lost my mind a thousand times below the Mason-Dixon
Trying to find my way back home to you
Never could deny that I was blind to what the truth is
Going for a ride west of Houston
Midnight on the highway
Wishing he could drive up to the moon
He never thought about his mother
And that was nothing new
Now he's down in the gutter
Selling his soul for a song
Lost my mind a thousand times below the Mason-Dixon
Trying to find my way back home to you
Never could deny that I was blind to what the truth is
Going for a ride west of Houston
Lost my mind a thousand times below the Mason-Dixon
Trying to find my way back home to you
Never could deny that I was blind to what the truth is
Going for a ride west of Houston
Going for a ride west of Houston
Going for a ride west of Houston
Going for a ride west of Houston
