i bought her a pretty diamond ring
on a sweet lone star Texas Night
and everything we played turned out just right
she wanted to dance and i wanted to sing
so we sat down in a big double chair
and i thought we made such a lovely pair
we went everywhere exploring for hours
acting silly with each other picking bouquets of Bluebell flowers
having Big D fun we never felt like we were done
people looked at us floating on our big sky cloud
on a sweet lone star Texas night
and everything we played turned out just right
she wanted it soft and i wanted it loud
we ate our Mexican food and pranked and drank
ran out of money and robbed the local bank
saw the famous Alamo and made a final stand
heard their grave appeals for a helping hand
we pushed hard against the famous Mission door
on a sweet lone star Texas Night
and everything we played turned out just right
and we wanted a little and then we wanted more
so we sat down in the center of town
looked for a hot time but there was no one else around
we went everywhere exploring for hours
acting silly with each other picking bouquets of Bluebell flowers
having fun we never felt like we were done.
