lyrics by Mike Frisby, music by Jeff Knight
I am just a songwriter/musician/singer/producer who writes a few songs every now and then. I have since retired from road work and mostly do studio recordings and I have my own home demo studio which you hear music created in it from time to time. I will post some demos of my own and maybe some demos of co-writes or co-producing. It's just what I feel like posting at the time. Thanks for stopping by! ;-)

(intro)
Latte, Sushi, California freeway
walk around in a fog, can’t breathe all the smog
Rat race, fever pace, get me out of this place
(V1)
Now I ain’t looking back or grievin’
cuz this Tennessee boy is leavin’
but my truck ain’t got a GPS
I just turned her loose, and she found Texas
(Chorus)
How big is Texas
does anybody know?
after fifteen cups of coffee
now I really got to go
I told California
see ya, goodbye, I’m gone
but how big is Texas?
cuz I’ve been driving
all night long
(V2)
should've seen the lights from Amarillo
but I made a wrong turn in New Mexico
called Tennessee friends to say I'd be late
seems like I'm standing still on this interstate
(Chorus)
How big is Texas
does anybody know?
after fifteen cups of coffee
now I really got to go
I told California
see ya, goodbye, I’m gone
but how big is Texas?
cuz I’ve been driving
all night long
(refrain)
Cruising through El Paso, Van Horn, Frontage Rd
Odessa, Big Spring, Sweetwater, Abilene
Ft. Worth, Dallas, seing Roy waving as I pass
(coda)
now I don't mean to sit and whine
But could somebody point me to that Arkansas line
(Chorus)
How big is Texas
does anybody know?
after fifteen cups of coffee
now I really got to go
I told California
see ya, goodbye, I’m gone
but how big is Texas?
cuz I’ve been driving
all night long
(tag)
how big is Texas?
