verse
I crossed the line where the longhorns roam,
With a dusty bag and a heart to call home.
The Texas sun greets me like an old friend,
Feels good to be back in Texas again.
chorus
Back in Texas, where the bluebonnets grow,
Where the big sky's endless, and the rivers flow slow.
The Lone Star's call brought me home to mend,
I'm whole once more, back in Texas again.
verse
The porch swing's creak is a welcome sound,
Coyotes howl in a moonlit town.
The sweet smell of mesquite in the air,
Texas, my love, there's no place that compares.
chorus
Back in Texas, where the bluebonnets grow,
Where the big sky's endless, and the rivers flow slow.
The Lone Star's call brought me home to mend,
I'm whole once more, back in Texas again.
bridge
From Amarillo to the Rio Grande,
Every stretch of road feels like shaking hands.
The rodeo calls and the fiddle's tune,
Underneath the bright, gold Texas moon.
chorus
Back in Texas, where the bluebonnets grow,
Where the big sky's endless, and the rivers flow slow.
The Lone Star's call brought me home to mend,
I'm whole once more, back in Texas again.
