Texas Forever

It's a single star waving, so proud and tall

It's the smell of gunpowder on the Alamo walls

A red Corpus sunset, hill country bluebonnets

Brisket at Cooper's, Joe T's enchiladas

Floating the Frio, cold beer in hand

It's a couple two-stepping to a twin fiddle band

It's a Saturday rodeo, Friday night lights

The prettiest girls you ever seen in your life

For those who

The mud of the Brazos and Red rivers

Run through our blood

Let the world know, we'll fight to the death

For the land and the people we love

Gather 'round friends, it's time for a toast

Let us raise up a cold one together

To Texas forever

From the pines to the mountains, the coast to the plains

There's a pride down inside us, it's hard to explain

But if ever you were one, then always you'll be

You may wander this world, but your heart never leaves

Long as cowboys still saddle their horses to ride

Out here there's just some things that won't ever die

Like a ghost in the alley of some 6th Street bar

You can still hear the ringing of Stevie's guitar

For those who

The mud of the Brazos and Red rivers

Run through our blood

Let the world know, we'll fight to the death

For the land and the people we love

Gather 'round friends, it's time for a toast

Let us raise up a cold one together

To Texas forever

Gather 'round friends, it's time for a toast

Let us raise up a cold one together

To Texas forever

Texas forever
