Jason Boland and Jason Boland & the Stragglers - Somewhere Down in Texas

I look south and see the strom coluds role, on their way from 'ol mexico
I don't want to be alone
And the rays of light through my shinnerbock bottle
Made me want to turn on the key and put down the throddle
Get lost down 35

When I get tied down to the tides 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 can think
Talk about love and laugh and drink
And there's someone there who cares

Cause no matter how big it storms
I know I can find me a place that's warm
The sun is shinin somewhere in texas
I hope its shinin on her
Somewhere down in texas

In a place that big a man can get lost
Never find the time and forget about the cost




There's more important things
She's somewhere smilin north of san antone

I've got her number but I stare at the phone
Cause I still want to believe

That no matter how big it storms
I know I can find me a place that's warm
The sun is shinin somewhere in texas
I hope its shinin on her
Somwhere down in texas

To hell with horoscopes and empty dreams
To hell with valentino and his cut of pair of jeans
Cause I know I can make it there
On a 12 pack and a prayer

Cause no matter how big it storms
I know I can find me a place that's warm
The sun is shinin somewhere in texas
I hope its shinin on her
Somwhere down in texas
Down in texas
Down in texas
Somwhere down in texas
