Lone Star, Texas

[Intro] (Lone star Texas) [Verse 1] Dust on the dash Bugs on the glass FM fading in and out That blue-wind sign Says "next town Nine" But I'm still thinking about your house Mesquite smoke On an August coat Of heat that never lets you breathe Your porch light Cut through the night Like you were saving it for me [Chorus] Lone Star Texas You hold me like a hometown prayer Barroom crosses County dances Every heartbreak hanging in the air I keep leaving Keep believing I'll outrun what we were back then Lone Star Texas You just pull me back again [Verse 2] Friday game Half-broke paint Cheerleaders on the chain-link fence Your daddy's truck We called it luck When it stalled and bought us minutes Dusty boots Sunday suits We tried to fit a bigger dream I took that road You stayed close But you're in everything I see [Interlude] (Lone star Texas) [Chorus] Lone Star Texas You hold me like a hometown prayer Barroom crosses County dances Every heartbreak hanging in the air I keep leaving Keep believing I'll outrun what we were back then Lone Star Texas You just pull me back again [Bridge] Maybe it's the sky so wide Makes a small town feel like choice Maybe it's your name I still hear in every stranger's voice (oh) Either way I'm still that kid Chasing red dirt on the wind [Chorus] Lone Star Texas You hold me like a hometown prayer Barroom crosses County dances Every heartbreak hanging in the air I keep leaving Keep believing I'll outrun what we were back then Lone Star Texas [Outro] (Lone Star Texas) You just pull me back again
