Texas Rain

I took a walk in the Texas rain

Down Brenfield Lane

Just to see what I could find

Memories flood like a crowded train

Where the tracks remain

But the people all have changed

They say

“Oh my, gotta keep movin’ on

Oh my my, gotta keep movin’ on

Oh my, gotta keep movin’ on

Gotta keep movin’

Gotta keep movin’ on”

On Fifth and Main there's a big parade

Where the children play

And take their youth for granted

The people pass and the very last

Stood on stilts with their stove-top hats

They sang

“Oh my, gotta keep movin’ on

Oh my my, gotta keep movin’ on

Oh my, gotta keep movin’ on

Gotta keep movin’

Gotta keep movin’ on”

Why not take me?

You could save me

Why not take me?

What is this that makes us feel alone?

What is this that makes us feel alone?

What is this that makes us feel alone?

You could save me

I begin to run through the Texas rain

I try to catch that train

But I can’t forget you

And I’m too old for a slow parade

I think it’s time to go my own way

Oh my, gotta keep movin’ on

Oh my my, gotta keep movin’ on

Oh my, gotta keep movin’ on

Gotta keep movin’

Gotta keep movin’ on

Oh my, gotta keep movin’ on

Oh my my, gotta keep movin’ on

Oh my, gotta keep movin’ on

Gotta keep movin’

Gotta keep movin’ on
