[Verse 1]
There's an old barn house on a patch of land
'Bout twenty miles out from the crawfish stand on the edge of town
She says it just feels like home
There's a Texmex joint on a lane drag
Best margarita she's ever had
Drinks 'em with her friends when she comes back
She says everybody knows
[Pre-Chorus]
It's the place to go
[Chorus]
She says she's never seen nothing like the sun going down in an Amarillo sky
She says she never felt nothing wanna make her settle down, wanna stay the rest of her life
No, there ain't nothing like the honky tonk nights
To get you feeling wild and reckless
And I talk about her the way she talks about Texas
Mm-mm
[Verse 2]
Wildflowers in the spring, heat in the summer, dirt roads wherever one knows each other
Lone stars in the sky and the fringe
She says, that's the way to live
[Pre-Chorus]
No matter where she is
[Chorus]
She says she's never seen nothing like the sun going down in an Amarillo sky
She says she never felt nothing wanna make her settle down, wanna stay the rest of her life
No, there ain't nothing like the honky tonk nights
To get you feeling wild and reckless
And I talk about her the way she talks about Texas
Yeah-yeah
The way she talks about Texas
[Bridge]
From the rain on the barn roof
To the wind through the tall pines
It's the only place she goes to
When she closes her eyes
[Chorus]
She says she's never seen nothing like the sun going down in an Amarillo sky
She says she never felt nothing wanna make her settle down, wanna stay the rest of her life
No, there ain't nothing like the honky tonk nights
To get you feeling wild and reckless
And I talk about her the way she talks about Texas
Yeah-yeah
The way she talks about Texas
Mm-mm
