Texas (1989) Lyrics
Warm winds blowing
Heating blue sky
And a road that goes forever
Been thinking 'bout it lately
Been watching some TV
Been looking all around me
At what has come to be
Been talking to my neighbour
And he agrees with me
It's all gone crazy
Well my wife returns from taking
My little girl to school
She's got beads of perspiration
As she tries to keep her cool
She says That mess it don't get no better
There's gonna come a day
Someone's gonna get killed out there
And I turn to her and say Texas
She says What?
I said Texas
She says What?
They've got big long road out there
Warm winds blowing
Heating blue sky
And a road that goes forever
I'm going to Texas
We got to get out of here
We got to get out of here
Well I got a little brother
Several meters high
Yea his built just like a quarterback
And he swears he'll testify
he says he's been to Texas
And that's the only place to be
Big stakes, big girls, no trouble there
That's the place for me
I'm going to Texas
I'm going to Texas
Watch me walking
Watch me walking
Heating blue sky
And a road that goes forever
Been watching some TV
Been looking all around me
At what has come to be
Been talking to my neighbour
And he agrees with me
It's all gone crazy
My little girl to school
She's got beads of perspiration
As she tries to keep her cool
She says That mess it don't get no better
There's gonna come a day
Someone's gonna get killed out there
And I turn to her and say Texas
She says What?
I said Texas
She says What?
They've got big long road out there
Heating blue sky
And a road that goes forever
I'm going to Texas
We got to get out of here
Several meters high
Yea his built just like a quarterback
And he swears he'll testify
he says he's been to Texas
And that's the only place to be
Big stakes, big girls, no trouble there
That's the place for me
I'm going to Texas
Watch me walking
Watch me walking

i want to go to Texas now! :) amazing song! iloveit!
This song came out soon after I moved to Texas. I never had heard of Chris Area but my son and I would play all the songs on jukeboxes that had to do with Texas, lol, and there's a lot. I purchased the CD just for the Texas song, which didn't only turn out to be a awesome song, the whole CD is excellent! I purchased a few more albums of his but non of them came close to this one.

The song is about moving to another state or place. Sometimes, you just got to pick up and make a new start. Texas is kind of a free place; no state income tax, the "big long roads" he sings about, you can own firearms, drive around anywhere in your pickup truck and just sort of live an independent life.
