Don Edwards - Way Out West in Texas lyrics

Way out west in Texas, it's where I long to be Ridin' on the prairie with a good horse under me Three long years I've bumed around, my heart is sad and blue I'm goin' back to the wooly West where your friends are always true Well, way out west in Texas where the atmosphere is light You roll up in your blanket on the prairie every night Where the rattlesnakes and the old horned toads, they sleep right by your side On the desert sands of Texas, it's where I long to ride Well, way out west in Texas around that old camp fire We sing the songs of long ago and strum on my guitar Heart is ever yerning, but I will be there soon I'll settle down in Texas when the cactus is in bloom Well, a way out west in Texas, roundup in the spring You'll hear me sing this little song while ridin' on the range Broadway lights appeal to you, moonlight suits me fine I'll settle down in Texas, I'll leave my blues behind
