Well, the summers are so grand,
forget about my problems,
sit on by the Rio Grande.
When I'm feeling kinda down,
I think about my Texas town.
There's nothing wrong with California,
but sweet old Texas on my mind.
Oh, Texas, you've been so good to me.
It gets harder, and harder,
Oh, Texas, you've been so good to me
It gets harder and harder
When I play around the world
I still miss my Texas girls
I miss my friends in Austin
When I get back, we'll have a few
When I'm feeling kind of low
I know exactly where to go
There's nothing wrong with California
But sweet old Texas on my mind
Oh, Texas, you've been so good to me
It gets harder and harder
Oh, Texas, you've been so good to me
It gets harder and harder
Oh, Texas, you've been so good to me
and harder and harder to leave
Texas, you've been so good to me
It gets hard, and harder and harder to leave
