Southbound 35

What the hell am I doing down in Kansas City
 Know damn well it ain't where I belong, no no
 Think I'll quit my job come five o'clock
 Find my lonely way back home
 Well, my baby said just what are you trying to prove here
 Really want to leave me here all alone
 Said I'm tired of staring at this ocean full of Yankees
 I'd rather be in Texas on my own, oh yeah
 Chorus:
 Now we were southbound 35
 We were headed down the road
 Hit the border by the morning
 To let Texas fill my soul
 To let Texas fill my soul
 Well, the tears start to flow about the time that I was leaving
 She said I guess you better take me along
 She said that God might have made her born a little Yankee child
 She said it's time that I made Texas now her home
 So we loaded her stuff on down into my pickup truck
 Said adios to all my friends
 Called my brother Dave living down in *AUSTIN*
 Said I'm headed home again
 Chorus:
 Now we were southbound 35
 We were headed down the road
 Hit the border by the morning
 To let Texas fill my soul
 To let Texas fill my soul
 Had her feet up on there on the dashboard
 Holding my hand and wearing only a smile
 Said it's gonna be hard just to start all over
 The feeling I have well it makes it all worthwhile
 Chorus:
 Now we were southbound 35
 We were headed down the road
 Hit the border by the morning
 To let Texas fill my soul
 To let Texas fill my soul
 I got Texas in my soul
 I got Texas in my soul
