Intro

Spoken"How are ya'll doing tonight? Let's get it. "introVerse 1I packed my bags in a cold and lonely northern townTired of the gray skies constantly dragging me downI looked at my compass, I looked at my worn-out shoesTired of the shadows, tired of the corporate bluesSo I turned the key and I let the engine roarHeading straight to the border where I belong once moreChorusHeavy-grooving swampy crowd shoutTurn the wheel! (Crowd: Turn it!)Flooring the gas! (Crowd: Go!)Choosin' the trail! (Crowd: Hell yeah!)Texas bound! (Crowd: Bound!)Riding back home! (Crowd: Home!)Until the night is done! (Crowd: Yee-haw!)Verse 2The dust is rising and the neon lights shine brightWelcoming an outlaw back into the southern nightYou can keep your high-rises, keep your crowded trainsI need the open wind blowing across the plainsI pull up a stool and I slam my cash on the wood'Cause breathing this Texas air never felt so goodChorusHeavy-grooving swampy crowd shoutTurn the wheel! (Crowd: Turn it!)Flooring the gas! (Crowd: Go!)Choosin' the trail! (Crowd: Hell yeah!)Texas bound! (Crowd: Bound!)Riding back home! (Crowd: Home!)Until the night is done! (Crowd: Yee-haw!)BridgeMusic drops low - Just a thumping bass drum and heavy stadium hand-clapsA glass of pure bourbon, a heart that's running freeThis is the only place I was ever meant to beCrowd building to a complete, absolute frenzy: Let's go! Let's go! Hey! Hey!Final ChorusThe entire band explodes into a massive swamp-rock wall of soundTurn the wheel! (Crowd: Turn it!)Flooring the gas! (Crowd: Go!)Choosin' the trail! (Crowd: Hell yeah!)Texas bound! (Crowd: Bound!)Riding back home! (Crowd: Home!)Until the night is done! (Crowd: Yee-haw!)TagThe electric guitars and fiddle stay high and wildYeah, I'm choosin' TexasCrowd shouts: All the way!Riding back homeCrowd shouts: Forever to stay!
