Asleep at the Wheel Lyrics - Miles and Miles of Texas

Asleep at the Wheel - Miles and Miles of Texas

I was born in Lousiana down on the ol' bouyo
Rasied on shrimps and catfish, mammy's good gumbo
I got the ramblin' fever, said goodbye to ma and pa
Crossed that ol' red river and this is what I saw

I saw miles and miles of Texas
All the stars up in the sky
I saw miles and miles of Texas
Gonna live here 'til I die

I rode up in to Austin the cradle of the West
Just ask any cowboy he'll tell you it's the best
I met a Texas beauty, I got friendly with her pa
I looked in to her big blue eyes this is what I saw

I saw miles and miles of Texas
All the stars up in the sky
I saw miles and miles of Texas
Gonna live here 'til I die

I started tamin' broncos, I made every rodeo
Until I met a tough one, you know his name-a was Devil Joe
I grabbed hold of his bridle just to ride this ol' outlaw
He threw me from the saddle and this is what I saw

I saw miles and miles of Texas
All the stars up in the sky
I saw miles and miles of Texas
Gonna live here 'til I die

Miles of Texas
Uahh now
All night long
Gonna live here 'til I die
Ah, Texas
