Texas Time In a Texas Town

Born out on Highway 9 down in Corpus Saw a mermaid in the gulf or maybe a porpoise What a time at South Padre during Spring break In Amarillo one time I tried to eat a giant steak And I’m drunk in Del Rio again Drank beer, long neck bottles of Lone Star Just sittin’ on a stool at Mickey Gilley’s Bar I fell in love with a country gal from Abilene Damn, she had the nicest legs I’d ever seen And I’m drunk in Del Rio again Fifty yard line seats to watch America’s team Roger, Troy, Emmett, Deon, Bullet Bob, what a dream Spent my whole pay check at a house in La Grange Partner, lets just say, it aint home on the range And I’m drunk in Del Rio again And I’m drunk in Del Rio again
