Be Back In Texas

There's a brand new gold
Palomino colt
Knee-high in the Colorado grass
And a note by the bed
He reads it again
'Cause it all happened way too fast
Now he's drivin' around
Lookin' all over town
For her '66 hardtop Mustang
But her cell phone keeps ringin'
Like the dreams he's been dreamin'
And it looks like it just might rain
And she's drivin' like lightnin' down I-25
She's tired of fightin' and she's gettin' restless
She's leavin' him sleepin' while she's still alive
And by sundown she'll be back in Texas
He called from the road
From the last rodeo
And said you don't make it easy on me
To listen to you cry
And try to answer why
I'm the way I just have to be
So she hung up the phone
And packed all her things
In the back of that '66 Ford
When he came home that night
She turned out the light
And said it won't be goodnight anymore
'Cause she's drivin' like lightnin' down I-25
She's tired of fightin' and she's gettin' restless
So she's leavin' him sleepin' while she's still alive
And by sundown she'll be back in Texas
He didn't really think
She meant what she said
As he drifted off to sleep
Now the sun's gone around
On that front range town
It's startin' to settle in
He reads it again
In the note by the bed
She won't ever be back again
'Cause she's drivin' like lightnin' down I-25
She's tired of fightin' and she's way past restless
She's leavin' me sleepin' while she's still alive
And by sundown she'll be back in Texas
