I loved touring in Texas. Every night was an adventure. Sure, I'd get up on stage and play every night with just my guitar, but the "real action" was watching the crowds interacting with each other. This in one I saw and overheard...

Verse 1.
I was in a Texas bar
Having a beer
When a soft voice that was near
Said, “Come here, stranger, and give me a hug”
And I’ll give you some Texacan Love
It's so good, Texacan Love
Texacan Love
Verse 2.
She was a sweet senorita
Raised below the border line
Now she homes in Austin
That's why they call her “The Texacan”
She said, “I’m gonna leave you howlin’
Chester, you'll be barking on the stairs”
Sayin’, “It ain't fair”
You'll be howling and screaming for ... more ...
CHORUS
Texacan Love
Gotta have my Texacan Love
It’s hot and spicy
Texacan Love
Bridge.
I said, “You don't have to, babe
'Cause I live my life from day-to-day.
I just don't seem to take it
When the meal's the same
'Cause my head gets small
And my feet get big
And I move on to a different gig
But, as for now,
Yeah, right now
I want more ...
REPEAT CHORUS
Texacan Love
Gotta have my, Texacan Love
I want and need it
Texacan Love
VERSE 3.
I had to leave that Texas town
And point my thumb up North
I hear there're clubs in Chicago
Guess I'll see what they are worth
She said that she hated to see me go
But she knew where I was at
If I was ever around again
The key was underneath the mat
REPEAT CHORUS
Ohhh, Texacan love
I gotta have some, Texacan Love
It want and need it
Texacan Love
It’s hot and spicy
Texacan Love
It’s so good
Texacan Love
Texacan Love
