Leaving Lubbock

It’s a cloudy early morning
Heading north on Milwaukee
With my heart in the back
No one knows what I’m doing
I don’t know what I’m doing
But the heat is still cold
As I’m leaving Lubbock
As I’m leaving home

You gotta grow up somewhere
How about a field of cotton
Always lining your cradle
Cat fishing the playas
Chasing tornados
Getting lost in the wind
I’m leaving Lubbock
I’m leaving home

Left on 84 at the break of dawn
Passing the trucks it’s time to move on, from
Cat fishing the playas
Kissing girls in the bar
A life that didn’t deny us
From finding out who we are
I’m leaving Lubbock
I’m leaving home

Driving off of the caprock
Into the canyons
Deep my reflections
I turn them off with the radio
Trying to look forward
Where all roads lead

A four lane highway at the break of dawn
Passing the trucks it’s time to move on, I already miss
Cat fishing the playas
Kissing girls in the bar
A life that didn’t deny us
From finding out who we are
I’m leaving Lubbock
I’m leaving a home
