| Lone Star State Of Mind |
| Nanci Griffith |
| Your phone call took my by surprise |
| Gee, it's been a long, long time |
| Since those hot and humid Texas nights |
| When we went swimm'n in the tide |
| Corpus Christi seems so far away |
| And I'm not talk'n 'bout the miles |
| And there ain't much I wouldn't give.. today |
| Just to see one of your smiles |
| But here I sit alone in Denver |
| Sipp'n the California wine |
| And I've got all night to remember you |
| I'm in a lone star state of mind |
| I just saw John Wayne on the Late, Late Show |
| Save the girl and ride away |
| And I was hoping as the credits rolled |
| He'd make it back to her someday |
| But here I sit alone in Denver |
| Sipp'n the California wine |
| And I've got all night to remember you |
| I'm in a lone star state of mind |
| Solo |
| It's a thousand miles or more |
| From here to your front door |
| I'd be there tomorrow if I left today |
| And I'd just pack up my guitar |
| You know it's really not that far |
| When you called you said I'd have a place to stay |
| But here I sit alone in Denver |
| Sipp'n the California wine |
| And I've got all night to remember you |
| I'm in a lone star state of mind |
| And I've got all night to remember you |
| I'm in a lone star state of mind |
