Down in my dreams somehow it seems 
That I'm back where I belong
Just a country hick way back in the stick 
Back where I was born
Cause the city lights and the city ways 
Are drivin' me insane
I want to be alone I want to be back home 
Out on the Texas plains

I want to drink my java from an old tin can 
While the moon comes shinin' high
I want to hear the call of a whippoorwill 
I want to hear a coyote whine
I want to feel my saddle horse between my legs 
Just riding him out on the range
Just to kick him in the sides let him show 
His step and pride out on the Texas plains

I want to hear the thunder as it goes and rolls 
I want to feel the rain in my face
Just a thousand miles from the city lights 
Living a cowboy ways
I want to sleep at night beneath the stars above
With that whole moon shinin' down
I want to cook my grabbel with catfish skulls 
Fifty miles from town
I want to drink my java

Sometime soon I'm goin' back back 
Where the skies are blue
In a little house just built for two 
Back where my dreams come true
Well I'm tired of subways 
And the forty story shacks
I'm tradin' the wide open range
I want to go back, please take me back 
Out on the Texas plains
I want to drink my java
