Warm winds blowing Heating blue sky And a road that goes forever Been thinking 'bout it lately Been watching some TV Been looking all around me At what has come to me Been talking to my neighbour And he agrees with me It's all gone crazy Well my wife returns from taking My little girl to school She's got beads of perspiration As she tries to keep for cool She says that mess it don't get no better There's gonna come a day Someone gonna get killed out there And I turn to her and say Texas she says what Texas she says what They got big long roads out there Warm winds blowing Heating blue sky And a road that goes forever I'm going to Texas We got to get out of here We got to get out of here Well I got a little brother Several metres high He's built just like a quarterback He swears he'll testify He says he's been to Texas And that's the only place to be Big stakes, big girls, no touble here That's the place for me I'm going to Texas I'm going to Texas Watch me walking Watch me walking
