At the end of my rope
Without an ounce of hope
I can see my life pass before my eyes
And teeter at the tipping point

A corps of engineers
Would fail to dam my tears
Because you can’t restrain a recessive gene
Or rain delay advancing years

Lake Tawakoni
Is always there for me
Lake Tawakoni

A telephoto lense
Over my darkest sins
Could help disguise unforgiving eyes
And send me down the road again

Chicken noodle soup
And muddy cowboy boots
Are simple things that remind me
I’m always anchored to my roots

Chorus
Solo

If I fall off track
You’ve always got my back
You’ll guide me down the path

Don’t let me, don’t let me, don’t let me float away
Don’t let me float away from me

Chorus
