Barely more than corn insulating the house. The folks in the high-rise still got the bright lies, but those on the edges are struggling and dying Right here in Texas I where all of the best is in the year of 21 there were hard times behind us They don’t mind us Cus worse was yet to come Six days in, down to 6 degrees Cold in the bedroom, cold between the sheets Glass by my head froze When the cruel wind blows I can hear my name I swear it’s calling me. I had a friend who met his end On that bleak February His name was Gene Taylor The piano player one better I’ve yet to see I’d sat by the keys He tried to teach me. About slurs and slides and hard times on the road with JT. Now that lights gone out And I want to shout But all that texas has is blue silence for me.
