Throughout the world this
And I thought it was the best
until I came out in the West
There dwells a town best known as Angelo
Where folks meet but seldom part
Unless they just don't have a heart
That's big enough for Swell St. Angelo
The grandest place I know
Now, I have roamed this wide world o 'er
But I'll never move no more
For I love you swell, son, and you loathe
right by your first name.
Now if you think you're a big shot,
you just won't fit in with our lot,
because we all are on an equal plane.
A banker might wear a diamond in his tie,
but a haughty gleam is never in his eye.
And when he grasps a cowboy's hand,
there's something they both understand,
Place where friendship never dies,
The grandest place I know.
Now I have roamed this wide world o 'er,
But I'll never move no more,
For I love you, Swell St. Angelo.
And the sun is always shining through.
We may not have a world of gold,
But we've got love right in our souls,
of the world and its woes,
And you'd like to give your
Just come on out here in the West,
and then you'll soon know all the rest
About the town of Swell, San Angelo.
