Roy Drusky - Long Long Texas Road lyrics

rate me

I've been up and I've been down I've worked the fields I've plowed the ground

I've taken strain and pressure till I thought I might explode

Now I yearn for childhood days of model planes and lemonade

When the day stretched out before me like a long long Texas road

Yes a long long Texas road bout a million miles or so

When you're just a child there ain't no time but now

Must have left that long old road seven hundred years ago

And I'd find it once again if I knew how

[ ac.guitar ]

I've worked in city factories their plastic dirt still clings to me

Monotory near killed me Lord it was a heavy load

Now I dream of comic books and horny toads and fishin' hooks

When the day stretched out before me like a long long Texas road

Yes a long long Texas road...

[ ac.guitar ]

So I watch the children play and dream my dreams of yesterday

Don't tell them to be grateful I'm sure that they've been told

If I knew then what I know now that would have messed it up somehow

When the day stretched out before me like a long long Texas road

Yes a long long Texas road...
