Drew Womack - Fastest Way to Texas lyrics

Fastest Way To Texas ( Drew Womack ) She was still in Ontario when I headed down Thunder Bay I stopped off for gas in St. Paul and it got me through all of IA Yeah she really made me mad this time and I had to get away So I was Texas bound just like that, and Texas I'd stay In a Kansas City Bar off of I-35 I stopped off for directions to make up for lost time Said I was looking for the fastest way to Texas tonight A man on a stool by himself started giving me advice He said I know the shortcuts, cause that interstate it messed up my life It was San Antonio; it was the middle of the night She knew I was all wrong, but she didn't want to fight So I jumped in my car and drove out of her sight And the way I get back is, son I... Walk up, sit down, and buy myself a double round The whole time I'm there that's when I crumble And its whiskey not the highway that drives me to tears And that's the fastest way to Texas from here The fastest way to Texas from here He went on to tell me all the things along the way that remind him of her That's why he won't go back the same way cause of how much it hurts He said light conversation can lead anywhere From football, to baseball, to how life just ain't fair But in this part of this bar we don't like to go there But if you really want to know, I just... Walk up, sit down, and buy myself a double round The whole time I'm there that's when I crumble And its whiskey not the highway that drives me to tears And that's the fastest way to Texas from here The fastest way to Texas from here Well it's my way or the highway Well he stumbled his way though his life, through the pain and regret He said take a look at that old car outside, cause its all I have left And let me say one last thing before you hit the road And buy you a round, propose a toast To the one man in this bar who knows who I hurt the most I guess I've got a thing, cause I just... Walked up, sit down, and buy myself a double round The whole time I'm there that's when I crumble And its whiskey not the highway that drives me to tears And that's the fastest way to Texas from here The fastest way to Texas from here The fastest way to Texas from here yeah it is… yeah baby
