Take me to Texas
Two hundred years ago
Where a pride rose from the ashes of San Jacinto
It still beats in every heart
Like a battle cry
Where I was born, where I was raised, so when I die
Take me to Texas
On the open range
The Rio Grande is in my veins
Itâs heaven there
And so my prayer
Is that youâll take me anywhere in Texas
The only home I know
Iâm a child of the Alamo
And the Yellow Rose
So when I go
Take me to Texas
Where my daddy worked
Where his blood and sweat and tears are still in that red dirt
Wild Palominos run
Cowboys are kings
And if I stray too far, Iâll let my Lone Star dreams
Take me to Texas
On the open range
The Rio Grande is in my veins
Itâs heaven there
And so my prayer
Is that youâll take me anywhere in Texas
The only home I know
Iâm a child of the Alamo
And the Yellow Rose
So when I go
Take me to Texas
Thereâs something in the sky
And in your mommaâs eyes
So even if you try to move away
Youâll end up on some road somewhere
With your thumb up in the air
When they ask you where youâre headed, youâll say
Take me to Dallas, Fort Worth, San Antone
Houston, Laredo, Galveston
Or Austin, maybe Abilene
The closest thing Iâve ever seen
To Heavenâs the Gulf of Mexico
Iâm a child of the Alamo
And the Yellow Rose
So when I go
Take me to Texas
Take me to Texas
Oh, take me to Texas
Take me to Texas
