Texas across the river where my wondering days I'll bid goodbye.

Just the sound of Texas gets me "boom" in the solar plexus
It's enough to make a grown man cry.
Texas across the river.

Don't need signs to tell you where you're at.
Ain't a trace of shade there.

Think the only real shade that's made there,
Is the shade that's underneath your hat.

Texas across the river. Texas, I never will roam.
Texas, calling Texas my home!
