In Texas Tonight
(Tim Stafford-Bobby Starnes/Daniel House Music, BMI-It Says What It Says Music,BMI)

He's out on the prairie tonight, headed for Austin
She worries about him alone, and prays for him often
She said don't cover your tracks
So you can find your way back
Not a cloud in the sky as the coyote cries in the distance
In Texas tonight

He camped for the night on the banks of the big Brazos River
And he dreamed of his wife back at home and the life he would give her
He said it wouldn't be long
Until these hard times are gone
He hums a sweet tune as the gold harvest moon slowly rises
In Texas tonight

No one can say what will be
In life there's no guarantees
Somewhere on the prairie tonight, this side of Austin
She worries about him alone, and prays for him often
She'll dream of love without end
Until she sees him again
Not a cloud in the sky as the coyote cries in the distance
In Texas tonight
