"Prairie Rose"
(Texas)
Oh, that’s where I belong
It seems to me
Lonesome star shine on the big country
With open skies and you for company
Oh prairie rose
How happy I should be
Hey, hey…You can take it from me
Hey, hey…I'll be home and you'll see
Hey, hey…Oh what a state to be in
Hey, hey…You're tantalizing me
(Texas)
I will compose in fancy rhyme or just plain prose
A song of praise to you my prairie rose
Though I'm not sure I can explain your strange allure
Oh prairie rose
A crown of thorns, a scented flower
Hey, hey…You can take it from me
Hey, hey…I'll be home and you'll see
Hey, hey…I better leave right away
Hey, hey…I can hear you calling me
Hey, hey…Prairie rose
Hey, hey…Prairie rose
Hey, hey…Prairie rose
Hey, hey…I hear your voice and it keeps me from sleeping
Prairie rose
Hey, hey…Prairie rose
Hey, hey…Prairie rose
Hey, hey…Prairie rose
Hey, hey…Prairie rose
