West texas wind

West texas wind Lyrics

Written by John IhmsIt's a long thin line, it sure is a hot and dusty day And Colorado is more than eight hundred miles away I called to tell you that I'd be home sometime tonight If the roads are clear and the weather is rightNow to say I miss you is puttin' it lightly, can't you see There's nothing better than havin' you lyin' next to me Early in the mornin', honey you're the first thing on my mind Like a risin' sun to the travelin' kindWest Texas Wind, tell me why you try to hold me back Tuggin' at my heart and pullin' on my sleeve You and this old guitar, you're always up for pickin' just one more song And if I listen long enough to you I might never leaveNow the lights of Denver, they're gonna shimmer in the deep red of the dawn And I'll be rollin' in, bleary-eyed and hangin' on And I'll grab my suitcase and slip it lightly through the door And swear again I won't leave him anymoreWest Texas Wind, tell me why you try to hold me back Tuggin' at my heart and pullin' on my sleeve You and this old guitar, you're always up for pickin' just one more song And if I listen long enough to you I might never leaveWest Texas Wind, tell me why you try to hold me back Tuggin' at my heart and pullin' on my sleeve You and this old guitar, you're always up for pickin' just one more song And if I listen long enough to you I might never leaveAnd if I listen long enough to you I might never leave If I listen long enough to you I might never leave
