Cactus Texas
by Waylon Jennings

Do you remember Cactus Texas nothing but a wide place in the
road
Eighteen wheelers never go there main Street's just too
narrow for the load
A little town of honest people some we haven't seen for
quite awhile
I was young and restless and we both were full of dreams and
running wild

We left our old hometown and family barely had a nickel to
our name
We were out to win the world not once looking back or losing
aim
We hit the big town and the big time not a lot of effort in
the deal
But in the bargain we lost touch with one another and old
feelings that were real
[ dobro ]
In a big house up on easy street where too much never seems
to be enough
We're not the same two people far away from all the days
when the times were rough
Including you and I is separated by a wall
It's not something we can talk about in fact we seldom even
talk at all
[ dobro ]
I don't think we realize how or why we ever came this
far
Let's go back to Cactus Texas maybe once we're there we'll
find out where we are
