texas kind of way

colorado is too cold

the snow gets the best of me

just laying there beside the fire place

looks like where you outta 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

i'll 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

i'll just be missing you in a texas kind of way

and new york's 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 tennessee

and i keep seeing 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

i'll just be missing you in a texas kind of way

here we go

and i'll 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

i'll just be missing you in a texas kind of way

oohhh no matter where i go

i'll just be missing you in a texas kind of way
