West Texas In My Eye Lyrics

Lately I've been thinking I could leave this town
Cut back on my drinking, stop this running round
Playing songs 'til after midnight, staying up 'til dawn
There's something in the dust and wind that keeps me hanging on
And I never thought I'd live to see the day I'd say goodbye
I ain't crying, that's west Texas in my eye

I'll be your blue eyed bandit if you'll be my renegade
I count a thousand tumbleweeds roll by me everyday
I'd like to grow a rose and stow it in that desert safe
Like a message in a bottle floating down the open plains
Where the Llano Estacado rises up to meet the sky
I ain't crying that's west Texas in my eye

I've seen the thunder heads descend and rip into the ground
The twisted hand of heaven spreading terror all around
Sending farmers in a deeper debt and ranchers to the grave
Where towers mark the end of time with slowly spinning blades
'Til the water table falls below the reach of human kind
I ain't crying that's west Texas in my eye

Lately I've been thinking I could leave this town
Cut back on my drinking and stop this running round
Playing songs til after midnight and staying up until dawn
But there's something in the dust and wind that keeps me hanging on
And I never thought I'd live to see the day I said goodbye
I ain't crying that's west Texas in my eye
I ain't crying that's west Texas in my eye
