Texas Dreamer
a child of ten
pumping gas way back then
a lasting impression was made
by a customer who came in
just a pickup truck and horse trailer
a cowboy hat, big belt buckle and southern drawl
said he was racing horses
was from Texas an' all

from that day on i dreamed of the day
i would go to this place where horses 'n' cowboys reign
with my school atlas tucked under my arm
i began to travel and explore this land
learned what i could
someday i'll go there, i truly would

we grow up and follow our destined path
childhood dreams are set aside
and now long years past i still see
that tall Texan, wearing a ten gallon hat
blue jeans and boots
and whistling a tune.

vivid in my mind, deep in my soul
i have travelled Texas often but only in books
i have crossed the state from end to end
Amarillo,  Brownsville, El Paso, Ft Worth
a passion followed along many paths
now in my pick up i travel at last.
