verse 1 I've gone through Arizona, right through New Mexico I'm gonna keep on driving just as hard as I can go I'm an Interstate daddy Taking my lonely heart back home I'm going back to Texas Back to the only gal I've ever known verse 2 That Lone Star spirit is right here by my side When I cross through old El Paso my heart will fill with pride Ain't gonna stop for nothing Till I see the lights of San Antone I'm going back to Texas Back to the only love I've ever known Instrumental verse 3 I'm going back to Texas, that's how it's gonna stay Back to my old stomping grounds and the joints I used to play And when I get back home Lord, I know I'll never be alone I'm going back to Texas Back to the only gal I've ever known Instrumental verse 4 I've gone through Arizona, right through New Mexico I'm gonna keep on driving just as hard as I can go I'm an Interstate daddy Taking my lonely heart back home I'm going back to Texas Back to the only gal I've ever known
