I CAN'T SEE TEXAS FROM HERE
(George Strait)
George Strait - 1982
Johnny Bush & Darrell McCall - 1986
Now I come and go as I please
>From down here, up north and in between
But baby, it's a shame 'cause I always feel the same
When I can't see Texas from here
I can't see Texas from here
No matter how I try, it makes me wanna die
So if you see me lookin' down
I'm tryin' not to show this frown
'Cause I can't see Texas from here
(Instrumental Break)
I can't say I don't like Tennessee
The people here have all been good to me
So please don't take offence if I start to get intense
Just 'cause I can't see Texas from here
I can't see Texas from here
No matter how I try, it makes me wanna die
So if you see me lookin' down
I'm tryin' not to show this frown
'Cause I can't see Texas from here
(Instrumental Break)
I can't see Texas from here
No matter how I try, it makes me wanna die
So if you see me lookin' down
I'm tryin' not to show this frown
'Cause I can't see Texas, I can't see Texas
I can't see Texas from here
