Lyrics
I'm from a western town down in Texas. Don't know why I left so long ago. All I know is this western town doen in Texas lives in my heart and my soul.
Grew up in this western town down in Texas. Runnin' home from school, playin' ball in the street. Oh, when I see my Ma, I'm gonna ask her - "Was life really so simple and so sweet?"
I'm goin' home where the buffalo roam so I can see my next of kin and maybe have a gin. I'm goin' back to see my Uncle Jack but most of all can't wait to feel my Mama's lovin' arms.
I'm from a western town down in Texas. We're all family - neighbors and friends.
Because this western town down in Texas is the place where the love never ends.
I'm goin' home to where the buffalo roam so I can see my next of kin - and maybe have a gin. I'm goin' back to see my Uncle Jack but most of all can't wait to feel my Mama's lovin' arms.
I'm from a western town down in Texas. Can't wait to hear some tales of long ago.
Because this western town down in Texas lives in my heart and my soul. It lives in my heart and my soul.
