Somewhere Down in Texas Written By Jason Boland Artist Jason Boland and the Stragglers Cd Pearl Snaps From [email protected] Correction by [email protected] Intro ( 2 Times) When I look south and see the storm clouds roll, on their way to old Mexico I don't want to be alone The rays of light through my Shiner Bock bottle 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 seems like I'm never gonna find the time to do what I need. That's to find me a place where I think talk about love, laugh, and drink. And there's someone there who cares. Chorus cause no matter how big the storms I know I can find me a place that's warm. The sun is shining somewhere in Texas. I hope it's shining 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. Shes' somewhere smiling north of San Antone I've got her number but I stare at the phone. Cause I still want to believe. CHORUS To hell with horoscopes and empty dreams to hell with Valentino in his cut pair of jeans. Cause I know I can make it there on a twelve pack and a prayer. CHORUS
