A soft-hued tale of a small-town girl who lingers on the narrator’s mind. Who is she? Like so many heroines of story and song, she retains an air of mystery. You’ll catch glimpses of her in several of the songs that follow, along with this other guy.... Kenny Skaggs brings Glen's spirit back to life in this song.

Lyrics
Texas Girl
She was raised by her grandmother, lived in the town where she was born,
She said the place had changed alot, the house flooded with each new storm,
She raised four kids where she grew up a beauty standing five feet tall,
I was not prepared for our encounter but now I’m thinking ‘bout a Texas Girl
I live in my own Eden, I mark my days with mindless bliss,
I have a love who holds me with bonds `that came with our first kiss,
Stars are exploding out tonight, the Milky Way’s aswirl,
I’m sitting in the dim bar light thinking ‘bout a Texas Girl
I still don’t know what I wanted, haven’t figured out what I found,
I’m walking on unsteady, uncharted deadly ground,
Be careful what you ask for, don’t replace diamonds with pearls,
I’m turning out the lights tonight, thinking ‘bout a Texas Girl
