Anywhere In Texas

[Verse 1]

Traveling across the ocean

Nothing seems to be in motion

Eight hours of airplane flyin'

Take it down. I feel like dyin'

Thousands of miles away

And no one knows a word that I say

I wish right now that I could be in Texas

Somebody please give me directions



[Verse 2]

France and Germany

They both looked the same to me

Everywhere eyes stare my direction

Criminal intent or music inspection

A few songs for every Jack and Coke

Once again drunk before I'd hoped

We tune up and right away we're playing

But all I want to see is someone singing



[Chorus]

I don't need to go home

But anywhere in Texas will be fine

Some place I can go

Where I can understand the payphone line

I thought I wanted to roam

But I just found out what I thought I would find

I sure don't need to go home

But anywhere in Texas will be fine



[Verse 3]

Four cities in seven days

Two bad shows and one didn't pay

Third delay from isolated showers

Stuck in an airport for five long hours

Twelve dollars for a Jack and Coke

Once again broke before I'd hoped

San Marcos or Amarillo

I want to go back to the 'Armadillo'



[Chorus]

I don't need to go home

But anywhere in Texas will be fine

Some place I can go

Where I can understand the payphone line

I thought I wanted to roam

But I just found out what I thought I would find

I sure don't need to go home

But anywhere in Texas will be fine



[Bridge]

A cheap romance in France is gonna have to wait

The girls I love are in the lone star state



[Chorus]

I don't need to go home

But anywhere in Texas will be fine

Some place I can go

Where I can understand the payphone line

I thought I wanted to roam

But I just found out what I thought I would find

I sure don't need to go home

But anywhere in Texas will be fine
