| Been ten years but I was a young man
|
| Fifteen more and I’ll be old
|
| Couple years I may be a rich man
|
| Where it ends up, I don’t really know
|
| Looking out your weathered windows
|
| Reaching for what you can’t hold
|
| Considering the ways that the wind blows
|
| Where it ends up you don’t really know
|
| You’re just looking for a reason
|
| And a place to call your own
|
| Nacogdoches up to Lucas
|
| Could you pick a better place to lose some change?
|
| Down in Kemah it might seem
|
| A little too long a walk out to La Grange
|
| Corsicana, they might slam you
|
| You’ll be thirsty for a glass of lemonade
|
| Try to slow down and hang around
|
| Along the way
|
| Looking out your weathered windows
|
| Reaching for what you can’t hold
|
| Considering the ways that the wind blows
|
| Where it ends up you don’t really know
|
| From Odessa up to Dumas
|
| Could you pick a better place to lose some change?
|
| Abiline, it might seem
|
| Like Uvalde couldn’t be further away
|
| Waxahatcha, they could catch you
|
| Chase you way back to Matagorta Bay
|
| Nacogdoches up to Lucas
|
| Could you pick a better place to lose some change?
|
| Down in Kemah it might seem
|
| A little too long a walk out to La Grange
|
| Corsicana, they might slam you
|
| You’d be thirsty for a glass of lemonade
|
| Try to slow down and hang around
|
| Along the way |
