Between Hell and Texas

from Heaven by Jared Rogerson

	/

lyrics

Left the pieces of my heart a thousand miles down the road/ Now I’m drivin’ and countin’ the million miles left to go/ To lose your mem’ry and to find myself, to see where I went wrong/ To bottle all that pain into sad cowboy songs

Somewhere between Hell and Texas, there’s a highway callin’ my name/ And a smoky old bar where I can strum my guitar for tips and a little local fame/ And there’s hot black coffee and cold hotel breakfasts/ Somewhere between Hell and Texas

So, I’m drivin’ like hell, just a runnin’ from my past/ Guess I’m lookin’ for anything that can be built to last/ Well maybe I’ll find it between Waco and Amarillo/ There’s only one of two places that I can go

Somewhere between Hell and Texas, there’s a highway callin’ my name/ And a smoky old bar where I can strum my guitar for tips and a little local fame/ And there’s hot black coffee and cold hotel breakfasts/ Somewhere between Hell and Texas

I gave you my love then you gave love away/ Just a couple regrets that I’ll take to my grave/ But I’m still alive, got this old truck in drive/
And there’s nothin’ to go back and save, but

Somewhere between Hell and Texas, there’s a highway callin’ my name/ And a smoky old bar where I can strum my guitar for tips and a little local fame/ And there’s hot black coffee and cold hotel breakfasts
Somewhere between Hell and Texas

Somewhere between Hell and Texas
