lyrics

When it’s round up time in Texas
And the bloom is on the sage
Then I long to be in Texas
Back a riding on the range
Just smell the bacon frying
When it’s sizzling in the pan
Hear the breakfast horn in the early morn
Drinking coffee from a can
Just riding, rocking, roping
Out in leather all day long
Just swaying, sweating, swearing
Listening to a cowhand’s song
How it beckons, and I reckon
I would work for any wage
To be free again, just to be again
Where the bloom is on sage

To some folks there’s a spot that lives forever
Deep down within their fondest memory
I have been a rover I have never
Seen any place where I would rather be

You just might find a rabbit in the willowy snee
