It's been three days, two hours and a minute   Since she blasted off breaking every speed limit   As fast and far away from me as she could get   Well, she said, "You'll straighten up one way or another   The Don't Mess With Texas bumper sticker on the bumper"   Said it all as she drove off into the red sunset      She was right and I've learned my lesson   Here on out, I'm a man on a mission      Houston, we have a problem   If you can put a man on the moon   I'm sure there's something you can do   To help a love a little off course   Well, I'm losin' her, heaven knows I can't do that   I need her back so come in Houston, we have a problem      She left with a suitcase full of resentment   She told me that I was afraid of commitment   She said "Don't call me baby", I'll call you   Well, it's been days and I ain't heard nothing   Somebody's just got to do something      Houston, we have a problem   If you can put a man on the moon   I'm sure there's something you can do   To help a love a little off course   Well, I'm losin' her, heaven knows I can't do that   I need her back so come in Houston, we have a problem      If I could do anything I would give everything   To make her come home   I only need a chance to say if I could find a way   To let her know      Come in Houston, we have a problem   If you can put a man on the moon   I'm sure there's something you can do   To help a love a little off course   Well, I'm losin' her, heaven knows I can't do that   I need her back so come in Houston, we have a problem   We have a problem
