Drew Womack Fastest Way To Texas
She was still in Ontario when I headed down Thunder Bay
I stopped off for gas in St. Paul and it got me through
all of IA
Yeah she really made me mad this time and I had to get
away
So I was Texas bound just like that, and Texas I'd
stay.
In a Kansas City Bar off of I-35
I stopped off for directions to make up for lost time
Said I was looking for the fastest way to Texas
tonight.
A man on a stool by himself started giving me advice.
He said I know the shortcuts, cause that interstate it
messed up my life.
It was San Antonio; it was the middle of the night
She knew I was all wrong, but she didn't want to fight
So I jumped in my car and drove out of her sight
And the way I get back is, son I...
Walk up, sit down, and buy myself a double round
The whole time I'm there that’s when I crumble
And its whiskey not the highway that drives me to tears
And that’s the fastest way to Texas from here
The fastest way to Texas from here
He went on to tell me all the things along the way that
remind him of her
That’s why he won't go back the same way cause of how
much it hurts
He said light conversation can lead anywhere
From football, to baseball, to how life just ain't fair
But in this part of this bar we don't like to go there
But if you really want to know, I just...
Walk up, sit down, and buy myself a double round
The whole time I'm there that’s when I crumble
And its whiskey not the highway that drives me to tears
And that’s the fastest way to Texas from here
The fastest way to Texas from here
Well it’s my way or the highway
Well he stumbled his way though his life, through the
pain and regret
He said take a look at that old car outside, cause its
all I have left
And let me say one last thing before you hit the road
And buy you a round, propose a toast
To the one man in this bar who knows who I hurt the
most
I guess I've got a thing, cause I just...
Walked up, sit down, and buy myself a double round
The whole time I'm there that’s when I crumble
And its whiskey not the highway that drives me to tears
And that’s the fastest way to Texas from here
The fastest way to Texas from here
The fastest way to Texas from here yeah it is… yeah baby
She was still in Ontario when I headed up Thunder
Bay...
