Wade Bowen
West Texas Rain
[Intro]
Wade basically you're a primadonna and we don’t know it
This a new song here I think as a songwriter it’s easiest to be Honest as possible
So here you go
And I went to college I grew up in Waco Texas
But I grew into college went to college out in West Texas and Texas tech
Which is when I pretty much started playing music
And trying to figure out my life
Making mistakes and learning from them making more mistakes And learning from them

[Verse 1]
I have been restless I have been reckless
I’ve been a strain on my mama’s heart
I’ve been a drunk I’ve been a dreamer
Pulling the strings on this old guitar
I found a few answers I still got questions
Kept it together I’m falling apart

[Chorus]
I got secret stories and old shoebox memories
Choices that I’d like to change
I got tear drops and laughter
Me chasing after
Years ago quick as they came like West Texas rain
Like West Texas rain

[Verse 2]
I’ve been a lover
I’ve been a Father
I’ve been a brother and I’ve been a son
I’ve been a Preacher I’ve been a sinner
If you can name it
I probably been one
I’m strong for the struggle
Constantly reaching for something that I never done

[Chorus]
And I got secret stories and old shoebox memories
Choices that I’d like to change
I got tear drops and laughter
Me chasing after
Years ago quick as they came like West Texas rain
Like West Texas rain

[Outro]
So close your eyes and hold on
We’re here and we’re gone
It goes just as quick as it came
Just like a West Texas rain
Just like a West Texas rain
Just like a West Texas rain yeah
