bury me in texas - zack jolet lyrics
i was born in tennessee
a bouncing baby boy
one day my daddy put me on his knee
took away my toys
he said
son, you’ll grow up fast
and i think it would be best
for you to venture on your own
he said, young man, go west
that’s how it happened
i did what daddy said
came to “tex-i-as”
i fought long and hard for her liberty
cuz i’d found where i loved best
so i say
bury me in texas
it’s texas that i love
i have always stood with her
when push did come to shove
and the ever-changing winds of fate
can blow where’er they may
but bury me in texas
upon my dying day
i served my new home gladly
as country and as state
it was the highest honor for me
to guide her towards her fate
yes it was
it helped protect her interests
her enemies i defied
but one day i found she stood on ground
i could not abide
oh, lord
for as much as i love texas
it’s the union i love more
i won’t lead fools into knowing doom
won’t lead them into war
still i say
bury me in texas
it’s texas that i love
i have always stood with her
when push did come to shove
and the ever-changing winds of fate
can blow where’er they may
but bury me in texas
upon my dying day
