DEEP IN THE HEART OF TEXAS

THE STARS AT NIGHT ARE BIG AND BRIGHT
DEEP IN THE HEART OF TEXAS
THE PRAIRIE SKY IS WIDE AND HIGH
DEEP IN THE HEART OF TEXAS

THE COYOTES WAIL ALONG THE TRAIL
DEEP IN THE HEART OF TEXAS
THE RABBITS RUSH AROUND THE BRUSH
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

THE COWBOYS CRY “KI-YIP-PEE-YI”
DEEP IN THE HEART OF TEXAS
THE DOGGIES BAWL AND BAWL AND BAWL
DEEP IN THE HEART OF TEXAS

THE CHICKEN HAWKS ARE FULL OF SQUAWKS
DEEP IN THE HEART OF TEXAS
THE OIL WELLS ARE FULL OF SMELLS
DEEP IN THE HEART OF TEXAS

THE CATUS PLANTS ARE TOUGH ON PANTS
DEEP IN THE HEART OF TEXAS
THAT’S WHY PERHPAPS THEY ALL WEAR CHAPPS
DEEP IN THE HEART OF TEXAS

Composers: June Hershey and Don Swander
