absolutely one of my all time favorite songs on one of my all time favorite albums. cant believe the nashville record companies werent interested in him.
I am living in Ohio now with my wife but my heart remains in the South. My home is the Hill Country, San Antonio and Austin. My relatives live in Waco. I love those places so much and this song makes me homesick, but in a good way. I'll be home again in a few years. And all these places will be waiting for me. I'm glad Lyle made this song and I wonder if he really understands how he truly touches people with his music. Thank you Lyle.
LL and Robert Earl Keen co-wrote this wonderful song. They were winners at the Kerrville New Folk Contest w/it. I will always remember the first time I heard it on a hot afternoon in May at the outdoor concert theatre there,.
This is awesome. Spent many a summer night on our front steps with the neighbors gathered round waiting for Brooksie, the ice cream man, who came at 10 PM. Don't live in that kind of neighborhood now, feel like maybe my kids missed out on something, but you can't have everything. We have an awesome back porch now. Thanks Proud Texan. Pics are awesome and so is the music.
The best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a porch swing with, never say a word, then walk away feeling like it was the best conversation that you ever had.
@enjoythevoyage couldn't have said it better myself....brings back wonderful memories of swinging on my grandparents porch swing mannnyyyy years ago....Here in Texas, porch swings are what makes a house a home...proud to be a GRIT..girl raised in the south! :D
Love this tune, just beautiful. But Texas ... I spent the longest decade of my life in the one year I was stationed in Baja Oklahoma.

This is the BEST Lyle Lovett recording... such a sweet taste of the best of my Texas upbringing. Nice job on the video, too.
