I drove fourteen hundred miles
I had to leave you behind
I drove fourteen hundred miles
I had to leave you behind
I love you baby
but you took too much time
I drove down the highway
I saw your face in the road
I drove down the highway
I saw your face in the road
I went to low gears momma'
my heart was a heavy load
your lovin' was good momma'
your kisses shook my bones
your lovin' was good momma'
your kisses shook my bones
I got a wife and kid darlin'
I can't leave 'em alone
it's fourteen hundred miles
from Dallas to L.A.
it's fourteen hundred miles
from Dallas to L.A.
I love you baby
that's why Texas is where I'll stay
