"South Of Oklahoma" lyrics

The Texas Trio Lyrics

"South Of Oklahoma"

I'll take me back to Texas, it's where I wanna be
East of Arizona and west of Tennessee
I've lived a lot of places, but time and time again
You're gonna see me movin' just as fast as I can
South of Oklahoma, north of that ol' Rio Grande

Send me back to Texas and don't you make me wait
'Cause everything is better in the Lone Star State
Mountains and rivers, hot desert sands
Hill country sunsets and cool southern winds
South of Oklahoma, north of that ol' Rio Grande

So you're gonna see me comin' down the road today
Lookin' for a locomotive that'll take me away
You'd better save my picture, better right down my name
Cause I'm leavin' in the morning on a southbound train

Well I'm goin' back to Texas, it's where I belong
I love her like a woman, and I hate to be gone
She swears I'm cheating on her, but she don't understand
That I'll be hers forever, her south Texas man
South of Oklahoma, north of that ol' Rio Grande

Somewhere south of Oklahoma
North of that ol' Rio Grande
