There's a place out in the desert Where oil flows and tumbleweeds roll Sunsets they last for hours And the moon has a dusty orange glow Yeah the moon has a dusty orange glow I moved away from those flatlands For a place so lovely and green Sometimes I feel all locked up inside In all of the hills and the trees Yeah in all of the hills and the trees I miss West Texas I miss being able to see for miles But I'm stuck up here in Ft. Worth And I haven't been west in a while No I haven't been west in a while I miss Friday night football Where the band plays "Hawaii Five-O" Sometimes I feel that I'm back in there And I feel a warm south wind blow Yes I feel that warm south wind blow And I'm sure that you wouldn't be just duly impressed If you hung out there any time The sky's covered in dust, the rigs now are rust But somehow it all makes me smile I said somehow it all makes me smile repeat chorus I'm sure you feel the same way about your hometown It's just something that you can't explain Maybe because it's familiar Like that smell in the air 'fore it rains Yeah that smell in the air 'fore it rains But the miles between me and my hometown Made me realize That it don't really matter where you're living Home is a state of mind I said home is a state of mind repeat chorus
