Lyle Lovett - That's Right (You're Not From Texas) Lyrics

  • Well, the last time I remember
  • that train stopping at the depot,
  • Was when me and my Aunt Veta
  • came riding back from Waco,
  • I remember I was wearing
  • my long pants and we was sharing
  • conversation with a man
  • who sold ball-point pens and paper.
  • And the train stopped in Clifton,
  • Where my aunt bought me some ice cream,
  • And my Mom was there to meet us,
  • When the train pulled into Kopperl.
  • But now kids at night break window lights,
  • And the sound of trains only remains,
  • In the memory of the ones like me,
  • Who have turned their backs on the splintered cracks
  • in the walls that stand on the railroad land,
  • Where we used to play and then run away
  • from the depot man.
  • I remember me and brother
  • used to run down to the depot,
  • Just to listen to the whistle
  • when the train pulled into Kopperl;
  • And the engine big and shiny,
  • black as coal that fed the fire,
  • And the engineer would smile and say,
