Leavin' Texas Songtext
von Jerry Jeff Walker

Texas this morning the sounds they just sing to me
I feel alive again and with every footstep that′s settin me free
Hey old friends,
Keep alive the good times we've had in those rollin′,
Rollin' hills
They will always be a part of me
Whenever I think of Texas memories


CHORUS
Oh Texas I'm just a little lost but I′m keepin′ on,
Just like that morning star, that's ahead of me,
I keep shinin′ on
'Til I make it to the borders of the Rio Grande
There I′ll catch me one last sunset 'cross the prairie

Well everything is movin right, so movin′s right
Still I can't deny that old loneliness that comes sometimes
But every mile and footstep goin' down
Ain′t no way a man keeps a count,
You just never forget that lonely stretch
Where you keep on for keepin on

CHORUS x 2
