West Texas Bound

West Texas Bound

The Houston sun disappears
With the miles that flew by
My truck flying 85
Racing the jets in the sky

I'm running out to West Texas
Back to some long lost roots
Pioneering to Heaven's edge
With a pack, a truck, and boots

To become the new Troubadour
Learn to ride, play, maybe love
My ambitious self can't wait
I've gotta go to Country Galore

These fake city lights
Are losing their hold on me
I've got to break free
to my paradise

The sun on my back
Wind blowing in a horse's mane
Cattle and cowboys in the fields
Farmers growing acres of grain
That's all what I lack

I'm running out to West Texas
Back to some long lost roots
Pioneering to Heaven's edge
With a pack, a truck, and boots

To become the new Troubadour
Learn to ride, play, maybe love
My ambitious self can't wait
I've gotta go to Country Galore

Watch me find who I am
Out in a small town out west
Where a rough, tough cowgirl
Awaits this cowboy up in a Ford

I'm tired of this concrete jungle
This claustrophobic cluster
Of buildings, cars, and roads
I'm taking off these loads

I'm running out to West Texas
Back to some long lost roots
Pioneering to Heaven's edge
With a pack, a truck, and boots

To become the new Troubadour
Learn to ride, play, maybe love
My ambitious self can't wait
I've gotta go to Country galore

I'm running out to West Texas
Back to some long lost roots
Pioneering to Heaven's edge
With a pack, a truck, and boots

To become the new Troubadour
Learn to ride, play, maybe love
My ambitious self can't wait
I've gotta go to Country galore

I'm running out to West Texas
Back to some long lost roots
Pioneering to Heaven's edge
With a pack, a truck, and boots

I enjoyed this poem. Made me wish for highway 35 and Texas.

I'm sorry this is so late! Those lines are some of my favorite out of this one. It's been interesting so far out here. Not exactly how I planned so far, but it's definitely amazing. Thanks for reading.
