Leavin' Texas - Jerry Jeff Walker, Dave Roberts
Well now Texas, I am just a little lost and beaten' down
Hell like a morning star thats ahead of me I am fadin' out
But If I make it to the borders of that Rio Grande
Guess I can make it for one last sunset 'cross the prarie
Yeah Texas this morning the sounds
They just sing to me
That I am alive again and with every footstep settin' me free
If I keep my smile in touch with you the good times we spent in those hills
There will always be a part of me as I live in my Texas Memory
[Chorus]
Oh Texas I am just a little lost and beatn' down
But like that morning star thats ahead of me that's fadin' out
I just hope I make it to the borders of the Rio Grande
So I can catch me one last sunset 'cross the Prarie
I say everything seems to be movin' on so I am movin' on
I don't deny I get a loneliness that comes sometimes
Well all the miles and all the footsteps going down aint' how I keep a count,
For every lonly stretch For I just kept on
For keepin' on
Chorus
