[ Featuring Trent Willmon, Chris Hennessee ]
When that half ton tornado, tore out the driveway
She never hit the brake pedal at all
As my truck disappeared into the Kerr County darkness
Taillights were the last thing I saw
So I hung around town till I just couldn't take it
Now I'm walking with my thumb in the wind
Cuz I gotta leave this state that I love to get out of the state that I'm in
Every taillight in Texas reminds me of you
Every time I see red, Lord I get the blues
Where the hell can I go, what the hell can I do
When every taillight in Texas reminds me of you
Now I sure do love me some Robert Earl Keen,
But turns out that Ol Robert Earl lied
Cuz this stretch of I-10 sure as hell goes on forever
But the party's been over a while
Every taillight in Texas reminds me of you
Every time I see red, Lord I get the blues
Where the hell can I go, what the hell can I do
When every taillight in Texas reminds me of you
I spent the last 7 hours in the bed of some Chevy
Made the border bridge just before dawn
Crossed into Juarez on a truck full of chickens
Adios mother cluckers I'm gone
Every taillight in Texas reminds me of you
Every time I see red, Lord I get the blues
Where the hell can I go, what the hell can I do
When every taillight in Texas reminds me of you
