1309 North Austin Lyrics

Right there where that old house used to be

Underneath that post oak tree

My imagination running wild and free

That boy was me

I was Tarzan swinging from a jungle vine

Pretending squirrels were tigers and lions

King of the jungle for all time

In my mind

There's nothing left except a vacant lot

A time and place others have forgot

I close my eyes and I'm a kid again

At 1309 North Austin

I was Spider-Man swinging from a web

Beating up the bad guys in my head

No one knew the secret life I led

When I was ten

I was a fighter pilot ace in a jet plane

The Lone Ranger with deadly aim

A Comanche warrior riding 'cross the plains

Is who I became

There's nothing left except a vacant lot

A time and place others have forgot

I close my eyes and I'm a kid again

At 1309 North Austin

I cherish all these memories I've made

Playing in the shade

Right there where that old house used to be

Underneath that post oak tree

My imagination running wild and free

At 1309 North Austin

1309 North Austin
