Your phone call took my by surprise Gee, its been a long, long time Since those hot and humid Texas nights When we went swimmn in the tide Corpus Christi seems so far away And Im not talkn bout the miles And there aint much I wouldnt give today Just to see one of your smiles Chorus But here I sit alone in Denver Sippn the California wine And Ive got all night to remember you Im in a lone star state of mind I just saw John Wayne on the Late, Late Show Save the girl and ride away And I was hoping as the credits rolled Hed make it back to her someday Chorus Here I sit alone in Denver Sippn the California wine And Ive got all night to remember you Im in a lone star state of mind Now Its a thousand miles or more From here to your front door Id be there tomorrow if I left today And Id just pack up my guitar You know its really not that far When you called you said Id have a place to stay Chorus But here I sit alone in Denver Sippn the California wine And Ive got all night to remember you Im in a lone star state of mind And Ive got all night to remember you Im in a lone star state of mind
