Roxy Music - Prairie Rose Lyrics

Roxy Music Lyrics

"Prairie Rose"

(Texas) Oh that's where I
Belong
It seems to me
(Texas) Lonesome star
Shine on
The big country
(Texas) With open skies
And you
For company
(Texas) Oh prairie rose
How happy
I should be

Hey, hey. You can take it from me
Hey, hey. I'll be coming, you'll see
Hey, hey. Oh what a state to be in
Hey, hey. You're tantalising me

(Texas) I will compose
In fancy rhyme
Or just plain prose
(Texas) A song of praise
To you
Prairie rose
(Texas) Though I'm not sure
I can explain
Your strange allure
(Texas) Oh, prairie rose
A crown of thorns
A scented flower

Hey hey, I'd better leave right away
Hey hey, I can hear you calling me

Hey, hey, prairie rose
