Texas Afternoon

Texas Afternoon by Eleven Hundred Springs

Words and Music by Matt Hillyer

Verse:

You’ve been workin’ at this place

So long it’s changed your face

These long days have chased away your smile

Why don’t you throw your apron down

Come with me we’ll paint the town

Anyways takin’ orders never was your style

Verse:

It’s been more than a year or two

Since we both got out of school

Why we hung around this town is a mystery

If you’d just crawl inside

Let me take you for a ride

We can talk about the way things used to be

Chorus:

Nothin’ else to do on a Texas afternoon

But let the radio play and try to keep each other cool.

While the dashboard plays a slow sweet tune

we know we’ve got to get back soon

But at least we have this Texas afternoon

Verse:

This old ride’s seen better days

But it’s still runnin’ anyways

Do you remember how it got you goin’ way back then

You always were a sight to see

Top down in the wind in the passenger’s seat

Lord it feels so good to see you sittin’ there again

Repeat Chorus:

Refrain:

Yeah you and me on this Texas afternoon
