Lyrics

TEXAS

Written by Timothy Mank

Got to water your houseplants, darlin?, or they?re going to shrivel up and die.
Don?t you treat our love like no desert. I ain?t some prickly cacti.
I?ve been out on this dusty highway. Well my lips are chapped and dry.
It?s been forty days since I?ve seen you dear, so throw a little water my way, Sunshine.

CHORUS:
AND I SAY NOW, "WHOA YEAH, THERE?S A LOT OF BAD STUFF GOING ?ROUND.
I?M HEADING BACK TO TEXAS - LAY MY GOOD SOUL ON DOWN."

Don?t you think of me as a bad man, even though I?ve made a few mistakes.
For those of you who want to cast those stones, do you really have now what it takes?
Oh and I still love you, even though I?m out there now on the run.
If I come back home, will you take me in? Can I still be your only one?

CHORUS:

Well now I?ve given up everything I own and I?ve run so far away.
If I come back home, I will save my soul and be your prodigal son today.
Will you still be there waiting with my little angels by your side?
I will raise my hands and help my fellow man. I fear no evil in this life.

And I say now, "WHOA YEAH, THERE?S A BUNCH OF SHIT COMING DOWN.
I?M HEADING BACK TO TEXAS; SPREAD MY SWEET SOUL ON AROUND AND AROUND. WATCH OUT, HERE IT IS COMING DOWN."
