The best introduction to Jon Wolfe is the basic yet not so simple fact that he's a country singer and songwriter. Country music, as it was, is and always should be, with boots firmly standing on the bedrock of tradition and an eye focused on taking it into the future. And that, as any fan of true country knows, is no simple proposition.
JW should have a bigger following. Shows outside of Texas in other southern cities, I think would do well for his career. Gone are the good ol' honky tonk days. I miss them. such a great song
What country music on the radio should be! If you've never seen Jon in concert, you owe it to yourself to go! A great entertainer and not a bad song in the bunch!
I woke up this morning not feeling right And it wasn't the beer that I drank last night It's the state I'm in I just know I'm not where I'm meant to be I heard a southern wind callin' out to me Go back home again Now I'm standin' at the lonely end of the path I chose And I can't stop thinking about all the things miss the most Might be those Saturday nights and the honky tonks and rodeos Or the way the sun sets in the hills of San Antonio Might be the dust on my boots, the miles of fence line That ole Rio Grande or the wide open sky But my best guess is It's that girl in Texas I spent all day packin up my truck My boss forgot to wish me luck When I said so long It high time I undue my mistake So I'll drive all night down the interstate Till I'm all the way gone I know deep down in my heart it's what I've gotta do And if anyone asks me what I'm most looking forward to I can't wait to see her smiling face And I couldn't tell you why I ever left that place I miss those Saturday nights and honky tonks and rodeos The way the sun sets in the hills of San Antonio Her beautiful smile, bright blue eyes Holdin' her close in the moonlight What I miss most is That girl in Texas
