🎵 “Under That East Texas Sky” (Verse 1) Pine trees standing tall and still Red dirt roads over every hill Screen door slams, cicadas cry Heat waves dance in July Porch light flickers, sun goes down That golden hour wraps this town Purple clouds drifting slow and high Nothing like that East Texas sky (Chorus) Under that East Texas sky Over Panola County nights Stars fall slow like fireflies Shining on these simple lives From sunrise gold to midnight blue There’s peace you feel deep down in you No matter where this road runs by My heart stays under that East Texas sky (Verse 2) Friday lights and a small-town band Holding her close, holding her hand Tailgate down by the pasture gate Talking dreams, talking fate Summer storms rolling in strong Thunder singing its low slow song Rain on tin like a lullaby Then clear again — that wide-open sky (Chorus) Under that East Texas sky Over Panola County nights Stars fall slow like fireflies Shining on these simple lives From sunrise gold to midnight blue There’s peace you feel deep down in you No matter where this road runs by My heart stays under that East Texas sky (Bridge) I’ve seen big cities, neon bright But they don’t shine the same at night As a gravel drive and a moon so high Hanging low in a country sky (Breakdown – soft) Crickets singing Wind through the pines Lord, it slows down time (Final Chorus – bigger) Under that East Texas sky Over Panola County nights Where every prayer and every try Rises up and learns to fly From childhood days to grown man’s pride It’s where my roots run deep inside No matter how far these miles go by I’ll always be under that East Texas sky (Outro) Pine trees swaying slow and high God painted that East Texas sky.
