Miles and Miles of Texas

I was born in Louisiana, down on the ol' bayou
 Rasied on shrimps and catfish, mammy'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 cradle of the West
 Just ask any cowboy he'll tell you it's the best
 I met a Texas beauty I got friendly with her Pa
 I looked into 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' broncos, I made every rodeo
 Until I met a tough one you know his name was Devil Joe
 I grabbed hold of his bridle just to ride this old 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
