Long Way From OK

(album: Pockets Of Pesos - 2005)

Time flies and love does too
Now how'd I ever believe that dreams come true
With a girl like that?
I got it bad and she got gone

Now my guess is Texas and Oklahoma boys
Don't mean much more to her than toys
And then she played me way too long

So I ran south cross that red river
A thousand miles might help forget her
I need a remedy for a memory
I need to get back on my feet

I've got pockets of pesos, a $20 dollar bill in my bill fold
Tell me what, tell me what's it gunna take?
And I've got cigars and lonestars and 2 tequila shots in every bar
But I can't, no I can't seem to get away.
Leaving her in Oklahoma didn't help ease the pain
I guess I'm a long way from OK

I know that feelings change
But when it comes to her she takes the cake and eats it too, there's someone new every other day

Yeah her green eyes disguise alotta things
Hook, line, and sucker they got me
And they still do, I wish I knew how to swim away

I'm running low on my defenses
I'm hiding out down here in Texas
I don't know where I'll go
Maybe Mexico, as long as there's a road

I've got pockets of pesos, a $20 dollar bill in my bill fold
Tell me what, tell me what's it gunna take?
And I've got cigars and lonestars and 2 tequila shots in every bar
But I can't, no I can't seem to get away.
Leaving her in Oklahoma didn't help ease the pain
I guess I'm a long way from OK

Yeah I need a remedy for a memory
I need to get back on my feet

And I've got pockets of pesos, a $20 dollar bill in my bill fold
Tell me what, tell me what's it gunna take?
Cause I've got cigars and lonestars and 2 tequila shots in every bar
But I can't, no I can't seem to get away.
Leaving her in Oklahoma didn't help ease the pain
I guess I'm a long way from OK

A long way from OK
