Art Mooney Chorus - Giant lyrics

rate me

Boston and Houston, The Alamo

El Paso, Crystal City, Waco

Dallas, Fort Worth, San Antonio

And Galveston and Amarillo

[CHORUS]

This land is Texas

Lonestar state of Texas

This is the giant land I love

Just like a sleeping giant

Trolling in the sun

In one great hand

The Rio Grande

In the other, Galveston

Where oil wells laugh at angels

Buzzards wheel above

[Repeat CHORUS]

My ma was born in Dallas

Father in Fort Worth

You can bet your boots

I got my roots

In the good ole Texas earth

Just see the silver dollars

Falling from above

[Repeat CHORUS]

God made these lonely acres

Where I ride alone

But the Devil cursed

This land with thirst

And he bleached it like a bone

One day, a wild tornado

Next, a gentle dawn

[Repeat CHORUS]

Boston and Houston, The Alamo

El Paso, Crystal City, Waco

Dallas, Fort Worth, San Antonio

And Galveston and Amarillo<br />

<br />
