where i keep the pictures of a time an' place i left far behind. an' i know the years have probably colored the way it really was back then. but still.i like to take the memories out an' look at 'em from time to time. there's a full moon t'night
on the prarie
a memory just rode into view. a boy
a buckskin
an' an ole spangler dawg
in the hills where the blue bonnets grew. well i was deep in the heart of texas
just a kid 'bout 13 at the time. runnin' wild through the mesquite
the cedars and cactus. it's been years
but your still on my mind. no matter where i might wander
there's a memeory that i'll never lose. the lonestar shines bright
in my heart tonight. i've got the blue bonnet blues. well i remember those warm summer evenin's
playin' out under the stars. back then i never dreamed we'd be leavin'
but i guess things just don't stay as they are. well the years and the miles came between us
but t'night as i'm dreamin' of you. once again
i'm a kid
in the sweet arms of texas. and i've got the blue bonnet blues. no matter where i might wander
there's a memory that i'll never lose. 'cause the lonestar shines bright in my heart t'night. i've got the blue bonnet blues. the lonestar shines bright in my heart t'night. i've got the blue bonnet blues.
