And I mean to tell you my friend they weren't no easy roads

And detour through the Lindsay's pasture when the waters ran too deep
Verse 2 played the same as verse 1
Memories of East Texas and of Gilmer, county seat of Upshur
Looking back and asking myself ''What the hell did you let them break your spirit for?''
Their lives ran in circles so small, they thought they'd seen it all
And they couldn't make a place for a girl who'd seen the ocean

Verse 3
But those memories of East Texas and those pine-green rolling hills
Covered in the springtime with wild daffodils
Sitting in those Piney woods, playing my guitar
Thinking back on the roads I'd come, thinking I had not come that far
