"Jimmie Rodgers' Last Thoughts" lyrics

"Jimmie Rodgers' Last Thoughts"

Last night, I had a dream of old Texas
Down where the bluebonnets gleam
And it brought to me thoughts of my loved ones
Last night in my bluebonnet dream
I dreamed I was back in old Texas
The best home that I ever knew
Picking sweet bluebonnet flowers
With the dear ones whom I love so true
And at dawning, my dream had not vanished
It is still in my heart, so it seems
Though there are no scenes here in New York
Like the ones in my bluebonnet dream
For I'm far from Anita and Carrie
Just awaiting the time when I can
Return to the scenes of my fireside
Back to my bluebonnet land

I know that soon I'll be going
To the best pals that I've ever known
Leaving this cold lonely city
Going back to my bluebonnet home
For my dream last night made me lonely
And I know I can no longer stay
Away from the side of my loved ones
In my bluebonnet home far away
