	Story Behind the Song I wrote this song on my way across Texas. I was road weary and lonely. I think I wrote the fist line outside of ElPaso and finished it up pulling into Austin. (9 hours of driving and a time change.) Recorded in LA with the fabulous Marty Rifkin (Bruce Springsteen, Tom Petty..)on steel and Bob Malone on Piano. Lyrics There's a bug the size of Texas on my windshield. And I'm tryin real hard to watch my speed. Cause I can't afford another ticket; hell, Ican't even afford the things I need. And I'm tryin not to get too caught up in these thoughts I'm lost in.Like how I paid my tolls with the change I won from you..in that poker game in Boston.. But you're in Richmond, and I'm in New Orleans. And by the time you get to Atlanta, I'll be drivin through Abilene. And I'll send you my number , when I know what it will be, and I hope you'll look me up , when you pass through Tennessee. (First verse and chorus)
