Art Mooney Chorus – Giant lyrics
Boston and Houston, The Alamo
El Paso, Crystal City, Waco
Dallas, Fort Worth, San Antonio
And Galveston and Amarillo
[Chorus:]
This land is Texas
Lonestar state of Texas
This is the giant land I love
Just like a sleeping giant
Trolling in the sun
In one great hand
The Rio Grande
In the other, Galveston
Where oil wells laugh at angels
Buzzards wheel above
[Repeat chorus]
My ma was born in Dallas
Father in Fort Worth
You can bet your boots
I got my roots
In the good ole Texas earth
Just see the silver dollars
Falling from above
[Repeat chorus]
God made these lonely acres
Where I ride alone
But the Devil cursed
This land with thirst
And he bleached it like a bone
One day, a wild tornado
Next, a gentle dawn
[Repeat chorus]
Boston and Houston, The Alamo
El Paso, Crystal City, Waco
Dallas, Fort Worth, San Antonio
And Galveston and Amarillo
El Paso, Crystal City, Waco
Dallas, Fort Worth, San Antonio
And Galveston and Amarillo
[Chorus:]
This land is Texas
Lonestar state of Texas
This is the giant land I love
Just like a sleeping giant
Trolling in the sun
In one great hand
The Rio Grande
In the other, Galveston
Where oil wells laugh at angels
Buzzards wheel above
[Repeat chorus]
My ma was born in Dallas
Father in Fort Worth
You can bet your boots
I got my roots
In the good ole Texas earth
Just see the silver dollars
Falling from above
[Repeat chorus]
God made these lonely acres
Where I ride alone
But the Devil cursed
This land with thirst
And he bleached it like a bone
One day, a wild tornado
Next, a gentle dawn
[Repeat chorus]
Boston and Houston, The Alamo
El Paso, Crystal City, Waco
Dallas, Fort Worth, San Antonio
And Galveston and Amarillo
