Texas In My Rear View Mirror (Bonus Track) - Mac Davis[00:00:00]

I was just fifteen and outta control[00:00:12]

Lost to James Dean and rock and roll[00:00:16]

I knew down deep in my country soul[00:00:19]

That I had to get away[00:00:22]

Hollywood was a lady in red[00:00:25]

Who danced in my dreams[00:00:28]

As I tossed in bed[00:00:29]

I knew I'd wind up[00:00:31]

In jail or dead[00:00:33]

If I had to stay[00:00:35]

I thought happiness[00:00:36]

Was Lubbock Texas[00:00:38]

In my rear view mirror[00:00:40]

My momma kept calling me home[00:00:43]

But I just did not want to hear her[00:00:46]

And the vision was getting clearer[00:00:49]

In my dreams[00:00:52]

So I laid out one night in June[00:00:56]

Stoned on the glow of the Texas moon[00:00:59]

Humming an old Buddy Holly tune[00:01:02]

Called Peggy Sue[00:01:05]

With my favorite jeans[00:01:08]

And a cheap guitar[00:01:09]

I ran off chasing a distant star[00:01:11]

If Buddy Holly could make it that far[00:01:14]

I figured I could too[00:01:18]

And I thought happiness[00:01:20]

Was Lubbock Texas[00:01:22]

In my rear view mirror[00:01:23]

My momma kept calling me home[00:01:27]

But I just did not want to hear her[00:01:30]

And the vision was getting clearer[00:01:33]

In my dreams[00:01:36]

But the Hollywood moon didn't[00:01:40]

Smile the same old smile[00:01:42]

That I'd grown up with[00:01:44]

The lady in red[00:01:46]

Just wanted my last dime[00:01:48]

And I cried myself to sleep at night[00:01:53]

Too dumb to run too scared to fight[00:01:56]

And too proud to admit it at the time[00:01:59]

So I got me some gigs on Saturday nights[00:02:06]

Not much more than orchestrated fights[00:02:09]

I'd come home drunk and I'd try to write[00:02:12]

But the words came out wrong[00:02:16]

Hell bent and bound for a wasted youth[00:02:19]

Too much gin and not enough vermouth[00:02:22]

And no one to teach me[00:02:25]

How to seek the truth[00:02:27]

Before I put it into song[00:02:28]

I still thought happiness[00:02:30]

Was Lubbock Texas[00:02:32]

In my rear view mirror[00:02:33]

My momma kept calling me home[00:02:37]

But I just could not would not hear her[00:02:39]

And the vision was getting clearer[00:02:44]

In my dreams[00:02:47]

Well I thank God each and every day[00:02:51]

For giving me the music and words to say[00:02:54]

I'd-a never made it any other way[00:02:57]

He was my only friend[00:03:00]

Now I sleep a little better at night[00:03:03]

When I look in the mirror[00:03:06]

In the morning light[00:03:08]

The man I see was both wrong and right[00:03:10]

He's going home again[00:03:12]

I guess happiness was Lubbock Texas[00:03:17]

In my rear view mirror[00:03:19]

But now happiness is Lubbock Texas[00:03:24]

Growing nearer and dearer[00:03:26]

And the vision is getting clearer[00:03:31]

In my dreams[00:03:33]

And I think I finally know[00:03:37]

Just what it means[00:03:39]

And when I die you can bury me[00:03:44]

In Lubbock Texas in my jeans[00:03:50]
