I love the river in the valley
I love the windstorm on the hill
I love the blackbirds in the blue sky
and I love the old windmill
I love the cotton when it's bloomin
I love the ribbon in your hair
I love the sweet smell of purple sage
yes I love Texas air
leave my spirit on the prairie
bury my bones in the sand
toss my troubles to the western wind
baby it's a wide wide land
there's a warm wild emotion where I'm livin
and the wind blows backwards all night long
trains run for hours without stoppin
and the mockingbird can sing a
thousand songs
there's music in the town and in the country
the women and the weather treat you fair
I love to smell the rain when it starts fallin
yes I love Texas air…
