Red dirt on my old boots
Dust settling on the screen door
Learned the hard truth
in those piney woods
They don't make roads like that no more
Oh, that Texas sky went on forever
Wildflowers blooming in the clay
Underneath the shade of that old oak tree
I left a piece of me
that never walked away (hmmmm)
We lived by the seasons
Praying for the autumn rain
Some folks need a city
to find their reason
But I just needed the wind on the plain
Oh, that Texas sky went on forever
Wildflowers blooming in the clay
Underneath the shade of that old oak tree
I left a piece of me that never walked away (yeah)
Just red dirt and piney woods (ahhhh) Where the sky goes on
forever
