Deep In the Heart of Texas

< instrumental opening >

The stars at night are big an' bright . . .
Deep in the heart of Texas!
The prairie sky is wide an' high . . .
Deep in the heart of Texas!
The sage in bloom is like perfume. . .
Deep in the heart of Texas!
Reminds me of the one I love. . .
Deep in the heart of Texas!

< instrumental break >

The coyotes wale along the trail . . .
Deep in the heart of Texas!
The rabbits rush around the brush . . .
Deep in the heart of Texas!

< instrumental break >

The cowboys cry 'Cai Yippi Yi'. . .
Deep in the heart of Texas!
The doggies bawl and' bawl an' bawl . . .
Deep in the heart of Texas!
Deep in the heart of Texas!
Deep in the heart of Texas!

< instrumental close >
