El Paso

[Verse 1]
I bet you're out there checkin' fences
Bringin' all the mail in
Two fingers of bourbon
Waiting for me to check in
And when you go to sleep in our bed
I hope you know you're in my head

[Verse 2]
Pulling me a little closer
Your lips kissing my shoulder
You're promising you'll hold me
And love me when I'm old me
And not a damn thing would change
Even when I fly away

[Chorus]
You got both feet on the ground
I'm on the moon up so high
Shining down on a different town
Just dreaming as big as the Texas sky
But now I'm missing home
While I'm out here on the road
Ooh yeah
You've got a way with that lasso
Pulling me back to El Paso

[Verse 3]
I lost track of all the miles
Sleeping in between the cities
But I can't forget your smile
'Cause I got your picture with me
So even in this hotel bed
You're the only thing in my head

[Pre-Chorus]
When I'm under bright lights
It almost gets me too high
But baby every word I sing about you
Every word's the whole damn truth

[Chorus]
You got both feet on the ground
I'm on the moon up so high
Shining down on a different town
Just dreaming as big as the Texas sky
But now I'm missing home
While I'm out here on the road
Uh yeah
You've got a way with that lasso
Pulling me back to El Paso

[Bridge]
When I'm under bright lights
It almost gets me too high
But baby every word I sing about you
Every word's the whole damn truth

[Chorus]
You got both feet on the ground
I'm on the moon up so high
Shining down on a different town
Just dreaming as big as the Texas sky
But now I'm missing home
While I'm out here on the road
Uh yeah
You've got a way with that lasso
Pulling me back to El Paso
