Way Out West In Texas - Gene Autry

Way out west in Texas, it’s where I long to be

Ridin' on the prairie with a good horse under me

For three long years I’ve bumed around, my heart is sad and blue

I’m goin' back to the wooly West where your friends are always true

(Yodel)

Well, way out west in Texas where the atmosphere is light

You roll up in your blanket on the prairie every night

Where the rattlesnakes and the old horned toads, they sleep right by your side

On the desert sands of Texas, it’s where I long to ride

(Yodel)

(Instrumental of Verse)

Well, way out west in Texas around that old camp fire

We sing the songs of long ago and strum on my guitar

My heart is ever yerning, but I will be there soon

I’ll settle down in Texas when the cactus is in bloom

(Instrumental of Verse)

Well, a way out west in Texas, round up in the spring

You’ll hear me sing this little song while ridin' on the range

Broadway lights (hue to you?) moon light suits me fine

I’ll settle down in Texas, I’ll leave my blues behind
