Brian Burns - I've Been Everywhere (Texas) [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

I was totin' my pack along the dusty Amarillo road
When along came a semi with a high and canvas covered load
€œIf you're goin' to Amarillo, Mack, with me you can ride,”
And so I climbed up in the cab and then I settled down inside
He asked me if I'd seen a road with so much dust and sand
And I said, “listen, bud, I've traveled every road in this here land...”

CHORUS:
I've been everywhere, man
I've been everywhere, man
I've crossed the deserts bare, man
Breathed the mountain air, man
Of travel I've had my share, man
I've been everywhere

I've been to Waco, Hico, Hondo, Navasota
Winnsboro, Jacksboro, Hillsboro, Santa Rosa
Austin, Houston, Galveston, Texarkana
Frisco, Buffalo, Conroe, Corsicana
Goliad, Groesbeck, Glen Rose, Red Oak
Post Oak, Live Oak, Lone Oak, no joke...

REPEAT CHORUS

I've been to Krugerville, Pflugerville, Van Horn, Val Verde
Brackettville, Bartonville, Beeville, Bulverde
Bear Creek, Cedar Creek, Mill Creek, Mineola
Maypearl, Monahans, Telephone, Tuscola
Redwater, Round Rock, Round Top, Round Lake
Sour Lake, Southlake, Springlake, for Pete's sake...

REPEAT CHORUS

I've been to Greenville, Gatesville, Gainesville, Alameda
Kerrville, Kellyville, Bastrop, Benavides
Somerville, Smithville, Stephenville, Prairie View
Luckenbach, Longview, Plainview, Idalou
Justin, Junction, Panorama, Pasadena
Angelina, and Lorena...see what I mean-a...

REPEAT CHORUS

I've been to Valley Mills, Pine Mills, Dime Box, Duncanville
New Home, New Hope, New Deal, Liberty Hill
Rockport, Rock Creek, Bridgeport, Brownwood
Cleburne, Comanche, Cut & Shoot, Cottonwood
Bayview, Bayside, Baytown, Bay City
Falls City, Center City, Bridge City, what a pity...

REPEAT CHORUS

When it comes to travelin' Texas, friend
I've been everywhere
