Down In Texas We're down here in old Texas Where the bandits steal the jitneys And the Mexicans steal the booze. Where the bull horns beat the sky line And they pockenock is just for pastime Where they chickens never roost Where they people shoot for loot Where the stick ups fall a prey And the bullets like a hail storm. Where each pocket has a wall And they pistol always hang a jury Where each hang good for a man And they never hang the jail. If you call a beat up you can Get home the best man you Get you a liar in the morning In a world of snow and sleet. Suffice you come home in the evening And come in the heat Where the street cars barely creep And the purgery pick your pockets Where the bulldogs they have rabies And the rabbits all me to sleep. While you lay me down to sleep Where the big girls in the morning Wear their dresses like their knees Where the weist out to the one Say Howdy to some fellow who Shoots big holes in your pants. Just to give your health a chance Where owls don't dare to sing And hell birds are afraid to hoot For it wise one is here Texas Where they all shoot on the wing.
