Hi, my name is Roy Harris and I am a songwriter from Texarkana, Texas. I have been very fortunate to hook up with some pretty talented musicians and writers to colab with on my songs. I am retired from the Navy and I love writing songs and the creative process it takes to produce a finished song. So come on in and sit a spell. Hope you enjoy our music. All of these songs are available for recording so if you are interested give me a shout. If the lady in the photo looks familiar, that's my buddy Marie Osmond.

Lyrics
Highway 59 © 2008 Mike Frisbey, Danny Bloodworth and Roy Harris (V1) I was raised on a black dirt farm in the deep East Texas pines A country boy who worked the land while the rest of the world went by I:d lie awake at night and hear those eighteen wheelers whine heading south to Houston on Highway 59 (Chorus) I know there are things that I’ve never seen Maybe one day I’ll get to follow my dreams I’ll pack up my bags… and leave this farm behind Start a new life somewhere down Highway 59 (V2) She was seventeen, a home coming queen And we fell in love one night Later on when the baby came We both broke down and cried We sat on daddy’s old John Deere and watched our dreams psss by Heading south to Houston on Highway 59 (Chorus) I know there are things that we’ve never seen Maybe one day we’ll get to follow our dreams We’ll pack up our bags… and leave this farm behind Start a new life somewhere down Highway 59 (V3) We never left that black dirt farm Cause our roots they ran too deep We stayed around and we helped grow Another branch on our family tree The kids are grown and now I see An old familiar sign As they sit and watch the world go by On Highway 59 Chorus) I know there are things that they’ve never seen Maybe one day they’ll get to follow their dreams They’ll pack up their bags… and leave this farm behind Start a new life somewhere down Highway 59
