A west Texas cold front is coming this way
A west Texas cold front
A low pressure, storm-bearing zone in the shape of
A west Texas cold front
Well she is so pretty
It’s hard to believe that the light in her eyes was once shining at me
But that west Texas cold front is more than a breeze
Now I’m changing states
But I packed up my things just a little too late
And that cold front might catch up with me
I left her in Lubbock, alone and betrayed
When I got in my car she just turned away
And the forecast for sun turned to forecast for rain
And those who left left and those who stayed stayed
And a west Texas cold front is coming this way
Now I sit here in Georgia
The sky’s turning grey
But I can’t go more east
The shore’s in the way
And I sit on it watching the west come this way
As if those who stayed left and those who left stayed
Well I told her that I would try to behave
But she told me to get the hell out of her state
And that west Texas cold front just blew me away
A west Texas cold front
