Dance Me Mommy

 Just about everyday, my sweet Jaxson will ask me to dance.  Right now, he wants to 'Dance, She's Texas' and I love it!  As I hold him and we sway together, my thoughts can't help but wander to the day I'll dance with him at his wedding.  I can only imagine the man he will become and the lucky woman who will get to call him hers.  But, for now, I oblige his every request to 'dance me' with tears in my eyes and joy in my heart.  What a lucky mom am I!


She's Like Texas by the Josh Abbott Band

She's as free as bluebonnets in the summer
She's as hot as the Padre Island sun
Most of the time, she's as warm and friendly
Like the hills that surround Austin

She's as bright as the Dallas sky
She always holds her head up high
She loves the company of her family
She has faith in God's greater plan
She trusts I'm a good man
And that's why I'll always believe
She's like Texas
And she likes me

Her eyes are green like the trees in Nacadoches
Her teeth are white as cotton in the fall
And when she laughs, you'll always take notice
'Cause her heart's charm will shine right through it all

She's as bright as the Dallas sky
She always holds her head up high
She loves the company of her family
She has faith in God's greater plan
She trusts I'm a good man
And that's why I'll always believe
She's like Texas
And she likes me

Her moods can change like the weather out in Lubbock
But if you show her love, man she'll return it

She's as bright as the Dallas sky
She always holds her head up high
She loves the company of her family
She has faith in God's greater plan
She trusts I'm a good man
And that's why I'll always believe
She's like Texas
And she likes me

Oh, she's like Texas
And she likes me
