Well I started out in Bolivar
Then worked my way
On down that Texas coast
Spent the night
Down in Palacios
With the people
Playing all the songs
That I wrote
Pre Chorus 1:
Then I packed up
That old Lincoln
And took off underneath
The blue sky
Hopped on a Texas back road
Pointed north
To the hill county
I did ride
Chorus 1:
It's been two years
But I'm finally here
To sing you a song
I had to go through hell
To wish you well
I hear you
Singing my songs
You'd be proud to know
The seeds are sowed
This old cowboys
Is back on the road
Verse 2:
Well I rode on into Austin
And drove around
To see what was going on
I floated down the Colorado
And eased on past
The statue of Stevie Ray Vaughn
Pre Chorus 2:
Then I drove straight to
To the Cactus Cafe
Remembering the words
That Guy Clark had to say
I won't take it for granted
God knows I traveled
A long way
Chorus 2:
Let me be clear
I'll be back next year
To sing you new songs
I really hate to go
But I know you know
He's only 7 years old
Im leaving Waxahachie
On to Nacogdoches
This old cowboy
Is going home
