Colorado is too cold
The snow gets the best of me
Just laying there beside the fire place

looks like where you otta be
and oklahoma is to rich
with american history

Its kind funny how it reminds me
Of all those books you use to read
And if i stay gone much longer

might really go insane
cause no matter where i go


Ill just be missing you in a texas kind of way
I keep seeing you in Houston
Down in matagorda Bay

And up on 6th street in Austin
At the rodeo in Santa Fe


MIGHT AS WELL JUST LOCK ME UP IN HUNTSVILLE
if your memories here to stay
Cause no matter where i go

Ill just be missing you in a texas kind of way

And new yorks got all them nights

Well its the city that never sleeps
Detroit can sure build me a fast car to try
and out run your memories

montana skies go on for miles
Like the love you said you had for me
but if i keep writing all these sad songs

might as well just stay in tenessee

And i keep seein you in Houston

Down at matagorda bay
And up on 6th street in Austin
At the rodeo in Santa Fe


MIGHT AS WELL JUST LOCK ME UP IN HUNTSVILLE
If your memories is here to stay

cause no matter where i go
ill just be missin you in a texas kind of way


here we go

and ill keep seeing you in houston

And down at matagorda bay
And up on 6th street in Austin
at the rodeo in santa fe


MIGHT AS WELL JUST LOCK ME UP IN HUNTSVILLE
if your memories here to stay

cause no matter where i go

Ill just be missing you in a Texas kind of way


oohhh no matter where i go


Ill just be missin you in a texas kind of way
