I was born in Lousiana down on the ol bouyo |
|
Rasied on shrimps and catfish mame's good gumbo |
|
I got the ramblin' fever said goodbye to ma and pa |
|
Crossed that ol red river and this is what I saw |
|
I saw miles and miles of Texas all the stars up in the sky |
|
I saw miles and miles of Texas gonna live here till I die |
|
I rode up in to Austin the craddle of the west |
|
Just ask any cowboy he'll tell you it's the best |
|
I met a texas bueaty I got friendly with her pa |
|
I looked in to her big blue eyes this is what I saw |
|
I saw miles and miles of Texas all the stars up in the sky |
|
I saw miles and miles of Texas gonna live here till I die |
|
I started tamin' bronko's I made every rodeo |
|
Until I met a tuff one you know his name was devil joe |
|
I grabb'd hold of his bridle just to ride this ol' outlaw |
|
He threw me from the saddle and this is what I saw |
|
I saw miles and miles of Texas all the stars up in the sky |
|
I saw miles and miles of Texas gonna live here till I die |
|
Miles of Texas |
|
Uaaah now |
|
All night long |
|
Gonna live here till I die |
|
Aaaaaaaah, Texas |
