Bill Osofsky songs
TEXAS, DON'T TAKE HER AWAY
(verse)
My baby just told me she's going to Texas
A little vacation, for maybe a week
But I wonder, is she really searchin' for something
Did her eyes tell a story her lips couldn't speak?
(chorus)
Texas, take care of my baby
She's coming to visit, she don't plan to stay
I hope you can see how I love her
Texas, don't take her away
(verse)
I hear that your evenings are cloudless and starry
A time when a girl could try finding herself
Get lost in the moment and all of it's beauty
And start her mind dreaming of somebody else.
(repeat chorus)
(bridge)
You'll see for yourself that she's funny and pretty and smart
So easy to love and so hard to get out of your heart
(verse)
Texas, they say that you're rugged and handsome
But warm and romantic when you want to be
And Texas I know it's a lot that I'm asking
Somehow you've gotta get her back home to me
(repeat chorus)
