Take me back to Texas, take me back to 17 Let me race the train tracks, just to smell the gasoline When we sipped on Moonshine, and the sun was third-degree When I had a lifetime, waiting right in front of me
Take me back to Texas, take me back to 23 When I ran from nothing, and I wanted everything Racing down the highway, and I'm picking up the speed Don't know where I'm going, but I think I gotta leave
Oh, take me home I must've gotten lost when I was looking down the road But I think I missed the exit Oh, someone take me back to Texas (ooh-ooh-ooh)
Take me back to Texas, take me back to Evergreen Should've never left it, should've kept that part of me I know where I'm going, and it's where I'm supposed to be I know where I'm going, and I hear it calling me
Oh, take me home 'Cause I must've gotten lost when I was looking down the road Oh, I think I missed the exit Oh, someone bring me back to Texas
