Text Me Texas Lyrics

Who's in Houston that's keepin' you from talkin' to me
I ain't used to layin' down without the sound of your voice
Before I drift off to sleep
Girl, you got me climbin' the walls
If you can't find the time to call

Come on and text me, Texas
Before you turn off your phone
I'm a wreck and I'm restless
Got a feelin' that you're not alone
It's breakin' my heart and I'm startin' to get the message
Come on and text me, Texas

I pray what you ain't sayin' don't mean what all my friends say it means
Maybe you can give me just a couple of lines that I can read between
You could even tell me a lie
Anything to get me by

Come on text me, Texas
Before you turn off your phone
I'm a wreck and I'm restless
Got a feelin' that you're not alone
Yeah it's breakin' my heart and I'm startin' to get the message
Come on and Text Me Texas

Whatever you can't tell me now
Baby, you could spell it out

Come on and text me, Texas
Before you turn off your phone
I'm a wreck and I'm restless
Got this feelin' that you're not alone
Yeah it's breakin' my heart and I'm startin' to get the message
Come on and text me Texas

Text Me Texas

This Rhett Akins, Shane McAnally and Josh Osborne penned song finds the narrator waiting desperately for a response from the object of his affection. Young told Pollstar that it's his favorite track on A.M. He explained: "It's just got this really cool slack-groove, and it's almost acoustically driven with a cajon feel. I just love the way it's written."

"I think it's got some of the coolest lines," Young continued. "There's a line in the second verse – and I hate when people line songs and here I am about to do a little bit of it – but it says:

"I pray what you ain't sayin' don't mean what all my friends say it means
Maybe you can give me just a couple of lines that I can read between."

"Man that's just some really cool songwriting," he concluded. "It's one of those songs where I said, 'Damn, why didn't I write that?' So we had to cut it for the record."
