The stars at night
Are big and bright
Deep in the heart of Texas
The prairie sky
Is wide and high
Deep in the heart of Texas
The sage in bloom
Is like perfume
Deep in the heart of Texas
Reminds me of
The one I love
Deep in the heart of Texas
The cowboys cry
"Ki yippee yi"
Deep in the heart of Texas
The rabbits rush
Around the brush
Deep in the heart of Texas
The coyotes wail
Along the trail
Deep in the heart of Texas
The dawgies bawl
And bawl and bawl
Deep in the heart of Texas
