Spud calls this KICKN'COUNTRY!!
Met Kim through some other songwriters on the internet, when I heard this song I immediately fell in love with it...such powerful words and music!
(ONE)
Thirty days and thirty nights, out here on the road,
Well I’m a Leavin’ Nashville Tennessee 1200 miles to go
My baby calls me on the phone, I can tell what’s on his mind
Cause all at once I feel the heat, burning down the line…….
(Chorus)
There’s a fire down in Texas, I’m needing to put out
I can’t wait another minute, lord I’m Houston bound
I can hear them old fire alarms just a ringin’ in my ear
Highway 40 get me outta here…….wooooh
Instrumental break’
(Two)
Minutes turn to hours, time just ticks away
I can feel the heat a risin’ with every word he has to say
Pullin’ into Conroe, 40 miles to go
Up and down I 45 you see the red hot glow
(Chorus)
There’s a fire down in Texas, I’m needing to put out
I can’t wait another minute, lord I’m Houston bound
I can hear them old fire alarms just a ringin’ in my ear
Highway 40 get me outta here…….
(Tag)
Wooh, One more exit baby and I’m there…..woooh
