Girl Down in Texas
[Verse 1]
There's a girl down in Texas
Holds hope in her eyes
Smile so soft and warming it stays with you for miles
She's a lifetime of happy years, she's a million memories
There's a girl down in Texas and she's waitin' on me
[Chorus]
So give her the River Walk instead of Broadway
And Sixth Street over L.A
And a salted margarita over a martini
Give me her in a poncho by a fire at night on the Frio
Safe in my arms is right where she wants to be
There's a girl down in Texas waitin' on me
[Verse 2]
Oh she's a Sunday morning stroll
At the park by the lake
The answer to my prayers when I started to lose faith
When I'm on the lonely road in the chasing my dreams
There's a girl down in Texas and she's waitin' on me
[Chorus]
So give her the River Walk instead of Broadway
And Sixth Street over L.A
And a salted margarita over a martini
Give me her in a poncho by a fire at night on the Frio
Safe in my arms is right where she wants to be
There's a girl down in Texas waitin' on me
[Bridge]
Takes an angel of a woman to do everything she needs
To be herself and not relent and still find time for me
[Chorus]
So give her the River Walk instead of Broadway
And Sixth Street over L.A
And a salted margarita over a martini
Give me her in a poncho by a fire at night on the Frio
Safe in my arms is right where she wants to be
There's a girl down in Texas waitin' on me
[Outro]
Oh there's a girl down in Texas
And lovin' me
