El Paso Lyrics

I bet you're out there checking fences

Bringing all the mail in

Two fingers of bourbon

Waiting for me to check-in

When you go to sleep in our bed

I hope you know you're in my head

Pulling me a little closer

Your lips kissing my shoulder

You promising you'll hold me

And love me when I'm old me

And not a damn thing would change

Even when I fly away

You got both feet on the ground

I'm on the moon up so high

Shining down

On a different town

Just dreaming as big as the Texas sky

But now I'm missing home

while I'm out here on the road

Ooh

You've got a way with that lasso-o

Pulling me back to El Paso

I lost track of all the miles

Sleeping in between the cities

I can't forget your smile

Cuz I got your picture with me

So, even in this hotel bed

You're the only thing in my head

When I'm under bright lights

It almost gets me too high

Baby every word I sing about you

Every word's the whole damn truth

You got both feet on the ground

I'm on the moon up so high

Shining down

On a different town

Just dreaming as big as the Texas sky

But now I'm missing home

while I'm out here on the road

Ooh

You've got a way with that lasso-o

Pulling me back to El Paso

When I'm under bright lights

It almost gets me too high

Baby every word I sing about you

Every word's the whole damn truth

You got both feet on the ground

I'm on the moon up so high

Shining down

On a different town

Just dreaming as big as the Texas sky

But now I'm missing home

while I'm out here on the road

Ooh

You've got a way with that lasso-o

Pulling me back to El Paso
