The video pictures Lawrence as a ranch hand who is smitten with a "Texas tornado" of a woman, and her young son. Scenes also feature Lawrence performing the song in a barn at dusk.</p><p>As each clip in the series unfolds, Lawrence appears dressed in the garb from the previous video, as he makes a "<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_Leap_(1989_TV_series)" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">quantum leap</a>" into a new time zone and tune. The sequence includes such clips as "<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renegades,_Rebels,_and_Rogues" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Renegades, Rebels, and Rogues</a>", "<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/If_the_Good_Die_Young" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">If the Good Die Young</a>", and "<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/As_Any_Fool_Can_See" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">As Any Fool Can See</a>". "The idea of tying all the videos together seemed logical, and once we hit on the concept of time travel, it just seemed natural," says Ball of the serial format. "We figured maybe the fans would grow to love it, even though the songs are vastly different from one another."<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texas_Tornado_(song)#cite_note-3" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">^[3]</a></p><p><br></p><p>^{<span class="ql-cursor"></span>}<img src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/uMJPEKNzvkM/maxresdefault.jpg" alt="Texas Tornado - Tracy Lawrence (Lyrics) - YouTube"></p>
