The Chicks Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But one who can feel at home
Yeah, here in the California sand
Who holds me like he'll never let go
It's been way too long
Since somebody's body was tangled with mine
Yeah, tangled up with mine
Everybody wants top market
But I'm a little bit unraveled
Everybody wants the new model
But I'm a little bit more traveled
If you got the strength I do
Then sign me up
If I'm not too much for you
Then sign me up, sign me up
I'm a little bit unraveled, but I'm ready
Uh-huh, uh-huh
And I'm ready
Uh-huh, uh-huh
Yeah, I could use a Texas man
Who's not afraid to take his time
He's gotta have patient hands
'Cause the way to my heart is through my mind
Been way too long since somebody's body kept me up all night
Yeah, that good kinda keepin' me up all night
Everybody wants top market
But I'm a little bit unraveled
Everybody wants the new model
But I'm a little bit more traveled
If you got the strength I do
Then sign me up
If I'm not too much for you
Then sign me up, sign me up
I'm a little bit unraveled, but I'm ready
Uh-huh, uh-huh
And I'm ready
Uh-huh, uh-huh
Feelin' my way in the dark
Steal a kiss in your car
Feelin' your way in the dark
Steal another one at the door
Everybody wants top market
But I'm a little bit unraveled
Everybody wants the new model
But I'm a little bit more traveled
If you got the strength I do
Then sign me up
If I'm not too much for you
Then sign me up
Yeah, sign me up
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Feelin' my way in the dark
Steal a kiss in the car
Feelin' your way in the dark
Steal another one at the door
Fallin' asleep in your arms
Under the West Coast stars
Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh
And I'm ready
Uh-huh, uh-huh
And I'm ready
Uh-huh, uh-huh
And I'm ready
The lyrics of "Texas Man" by The Chicks convey a longing for connection and intimacy with a specific type of partner, evoking a sense of yearning and desire. The singer expresses a desire for a Texas man, someone who can make her feel at home even in the unfamiliar California sand. She craves a deep emotional connection and physical closeness, wanting to be held tightly and never let go. The lyrics convey a sense of vulnerability and a longing for companionship that has been absent for too long.
The singer reflects on her own complexities and the challenges she may present in a relationship, admitting to feeling a bit unravelled and more experienced than the typical expectations of others. She acknowledges that she may not fit the mold of what society deems desirable, but she is unapologetically herself and ready for a genuine connection with someone who can match her strength and depth. The lyrics suggest a plea for acceptance and understanding, highlighting a desire for a partner who sees her for who she truly is.
The repeated refrain of "sign me up" throughout the song indicates a willingness and eagerness to embark on a new relationship with someone who appreciates her unique qualities. The singer seeks a partner who is willing to invest time and effort in getting to know her, understanding that the key to her heart lies in intellectual connection and emotional intimacy. The lyrics exude a sense of readiness for love, despite past experiences of feeling adrift or misunderstood.
The imagery of navigating the darkness and stealing moments of intimacy, like kisses in the car or under the stars, portrays a sense of spontaneity and passion in the potential relationship. The singer envisions falling asleep in the arms of her Texas man under the West Coast stars, symbolizing a sense of security, comfort, and belonging. The song overall conveys a desire for a genuine connection with a partner who sees and appreciates the singer for all her complexities, vulnerabilities, and strengths.
