Planet Texas

They rode like they was rangers as they came out of the skies
 They had high-tech horses with beacons in their eyes
 My gun was cocked and ready when I looked into their face
 I seen they just weren't just common buck-a-roos born of the human race
 No, sir, these cowboys came from space
 Their shootin' irons shot laser light and their spurs was anodized
 Bandanas caked with stardust and their jeans was pressurized
 Well, he handed me a halter, said, "Tighten up the girth"
 But before I hit the saddle, we were miles above the Earth
 And I mean miles above the Earth
 Yippie-aye-ay-e
 I seen London, Paris, Budapest, Kashmir and Tokyo
 And there ain't no sight like a desert night looking down on Mexico
 To the Moons of Mars and Jupiter, 'round Saturn's rings we rode
 Past the frozen plains of Pluto where even the sunshine's cold
 Man, I do mean cold
 Then our interstellar stallions sailed through the starless void
 There was nothing to miss in that emptiness, not even a stray asteroid
 So we picked up the trail of a comet tail, man, you can't even dream that far
 And the galloping beat like the rhythm of an old catgut guitar
 Just the strummin' of a distant star
 Yippie-aye-ay-e
 Well, it could have lasted minutes or a hundred thousand years
 When they got me down, I was safe and sound, and it hadn't even popped my ears
 And they reared back on their broncos, and they shot a bolt of light
 I knew they were the good guys, yes, sir you got it right
 'Cause their cowboy hats was White
 So I asked 'em as they pulled their reins towards the settin' sun
 "Before you go, I'd like to know, just where you boys come from?"
 Well, they opened up a star chart and said, "Right here where this 'X' is
 It's the biggest place in Outer Space, the planet known as Texas"
 Yippie-aye-ay-e
 Yippie-aye-ay-e
