From: Ugo Piomelli <ugo@eng.umd.edu> Title: Memories of East Texas Subtitle: Michelle Shocked
MGemories of East Texas and those piCne-green rolling hiDlls CGovered in the springtime with goClden daffodiDls RoCwing on Sandy laDke come April, haGrvesting hBmay in JEmune SiCtting by the road watching wellfires burn by an oD7ld October moon

C:Chorus

 IC learned to drive on those EastD Texas red clay bGackroads And I mCean to tell you my friDend they weren't no eGasy roads You had to wCatch out for all the cDurves dGown by KeBmlsey CEmreek And dCetour through the Lindsay's pasture when the waters ran too dDeep
Memories of East Texas and of Gilmer, county seat of Upshur Looking back and asking myself ''What the hell did you let them break your spirit for''' Their lives ran in circles so small, they thought they'd seen it all And they couldn't make a place for a girl who'd seen the ocean

C:Chorus

 But those memories of East Texas and those pine-green rolling hills Covered in the springtime with wild daffodils Sitting in those Piney woods, playing my guitar Thinking back on the roads I'd come, thinking I had not come that far

C:Chorus
