Texas Dream

[Verse 1]
I was born in the wake of a thunderstorm
My mama cried when she looked into my hazel eyes
I was alive and I grew to be an honest guy
I made my mama cry when I left home with my pride

[Verse 2]
I ran away looking for a claim to stake
But my mistake was to gamble with the devil's heartbreak
My mama cried when I crawled back to my home
I fell into her arms, she said, "Baby, you are not alone"

[Chorus]
But this ain't my first rodeo
I can make it on my own
So I'm following a Texas dream
I'm gonna plant the seed, I need my family tree

[Verse 3]
I'm heading south to my baby on the open road
I'll stay afloat until I finally have found that gold
I'll live a simple life with a little one and my wife
I'm gonna be kind to the people that pass me by

[Chorus]
'Cause there's something I have always known
You're not alive if you're living alone
So I'm following that Texas dream
I'm gonna plant that seed and grow my family tree
'Cause there's something I have always known
You're not alive if you're living alone
So I'm following that Texas dream
I'm gonna plant that seed and grow my family tree
