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 neighbor and he agrees with me
It's all gone crazy
Well, my wife returns from taking my little girl to school
She 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 roads out therе
Warm winds blowing
Heating blue sky
And a road that goes forever
I'm going to Texas
(Two, three)
We gotta get out of here
We gotta get out of here
Well, I got a little brother, several meters high
Yeah, he's 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 cars, no trouble here
Yeah, that's the place for me
I'm going to Texas, yeah-yeah
I'm going to Texas, yeah-yeah
I'm going to Texas
Watch me walking
Watch me walking
Watch me walking, yeah-yeah
