TEXAS  BOY

i'm just a texas boy, telling you, goodbye
getting on a big bird that they tell me is gonna fly
going to atlanta with a gleam in your eye
won't you hurry back baby
before I start to cry

hurry back baby, don't be gone too long, 'cause it's lonely here in texas
and i'm singing a blues song

sittin at the airport watchin the big birds
poke a hole in the sky
sadness rolls in upon me like a cloud
and I feel myself start to cry

hurry back baby, don't be gone too long, 'cause it's lonely here in texas
and i'm singing a blues song

missing you baby as I watch your steel bird become a piece of the sky
I take a deep breath, taste our last kiss, and let it out with a sigh.

well won't you hurry back baby, don't be gone too long, 'cause it's
lonely here in texas and i'm singing a blues song
