Don't Ask Me Why (I'm Going to Texas) - Asleep At The Wheel

Take me to Texas Two hundred years ago Where a pride rose from the ashes of San Jacinto It still beats in every heart Like a battle cry Where I was born, where I was raised, so when I die Take me to Texas On the open range The Rio Grande is in my veins It's heaven there And so my prayer Is that you'll take me anywhere in Texas The only home I know I'm a child of the Alamo And the Yellow Rose So when I go Take me to Texas Where my daddy worked Where his blood and sweat and tears are still in that red dirt Wild Palominos run Cowboys are kings And if I stray too far, I'll let my Lone Star dreams Take me to Texas On the open range The Rio Grande is in my veins It's heaven there And so my prayer Is that you'll take me anywhere in Texas The only home I know I'm a child of the Alamo And the Yellow Rose So when I go Take me to Texas There's something in the sky And in your momma's eyes So even if you try to move away You'll end up on some road somewhere With your thumb up in the air When they ask you where you're headed, you'll say Take me to Dallas, Fort Worth, San Antone Houston, Laredo, Galveston Or Austin, maybe Abilene The closest thing I've ever seen To Heaven's the Gulf of Mexico I'm a child of the Alamo And the Yellow Rose So when I go Take me to Texas Mhmmm Take me to Texas Oh, take me to Texas Take me to Texas

You got a fast car I want a ticket to anywhere Maybe we make a deal Maybe together we can get somewhere Any place is better Startin' from zero, got nothing to lose Maybe we'll make something Me, myself, I got nothing to prove You got a fast car I got a plan to get us out of here I been working at the convenience store Managed to save just a little bit of money Won't have to drive too far Just across the border and into the city You and I can both get jobs Finally see what it means to be living See, my old man's got a problem He lives with the bottle, that's the way it is He says his body's too old for working His body's too young to look like his Mama went off and left him She wanted more from life than he could give I said, "somebody's got to take care of him" So I quit school and that's what I did You got a fast car Is it fast enough so we can fly away? Still gotta make a decision Leave tonight, or live and die this way So, I remember when we were driving, driving in your car Speed so fast, I felt like I was drunk City lights lay out before us And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder And I, I, had a feeling that I belonged I, I, had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone You got a fast car We go cruisin', entertain ourselves You still ain't got a job So I work in a market as a checkout girl I know things will get better You'll find work and I'll get promoted We'll move out of the shelter Buy a bigger house, live in the suburbs So, I remember when we were driving, driving in your car Speed so fast, I felt like I was drunk City lights lay out before us And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder And I, I, had a feeling that I belonged I, I, had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone You got a fast car I got a job that pays all our bills You stay out drinking late at the bar See more of your friends than you do of your kids I'd always hoped for better Thought maybe together you and me would find it I got no plans, I ain't going nowhere So take your fast car and keep on driving So, I remember when we were driving, driving in your car Speed so fast, I felt like I was drunk City lights lay out before us And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder And I, I, had a feeling that I belonged I, I, had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone You got a fast car Is it fast enough so you can fly away?
