There's a girl down in Texas
Holds hope in her eyes
A smile so soft and warming
Stays with you for miles
She's a lifetime of happy years
She's a million memories
There's a girl down in Texas
And she's waiting on me

So give her the River Walk instead of Broadway
Sixth Street over L.A.
And a salted Margarita over a Martini
Give me her in a poncho
By a fire at night on the Frio
Safe in my arms is right where she wants to be
There's a girl down in Texas waiting on me

Oh, she's a Sunday morning stroll
At the park by the lake
The answer to my prayers
When I started to lose faith
When I'm on the lonely road
Chasing my dreams
There's a girl down in Texas
And she's waiting on me

So give her the River Walk instead of Broadway
Sixth Street over L.A.
And a salted Margarita over a Martini
Give me her in a poncho
By a fire at night on the Frio
Safe in my arms is right where she wants to be
There's a girl down in Texas waiting on me

It takes an angel of a woman
To do everything she needs
To be herself and not relent
And still find time for me

So give her the River Walk instead of Broadway
Sixth Street over L.A.
And a salted Margarita over a Martini
Give me her in a poncho
By a fire at night on the Frio
Safe in my arms is right where she wants to be, yeah
There's a girl down in Texas waiting on me
Oh, there's a girl down in Texas in love with me
