Texas Lullaby Lyrics - David Allan Coe

By: David Allan Coe and Ann McGowan 

SEE THOSE TUMBLEWEEDS A-BLOWING' 

LORD, IT MAKES ME WANT TO CRY 

IT REMINDS ME OF MY DADDY 

AND THAT TEXAS LULLABY 

SEE THOSE CACTUS FLOWERS BLOOMING' 

LIKE THE TWINKLE IN HIS EYE 

EVERY TIME HE STARTED SINGING' THAT OLE TEXAS LULLABY 

YIPPEE YI LITTLE DOGGIE ROLL ALONG ROLL ALONG 

YIPPEE YI LITTLE DOGGIE TAKE ME HOME, TAKE ME HOME 

IT'S SO COLD ON THE DESERT, I'M CHILLED TO THE BONE 

YIPPEE YI LITTLE DOGGIE, YIPPEE YI 

LOOK YONDER THERE'S A DUST CLOUD PAINTING PICTURES IN THE SKY 

DADDY TOLD ME ALL ABOUT IT, IN THAT TEXAS LULLABY 

THEM OLE LONGHORNS ARE A BALLWIN', LORD I KNOW I MUST BE HIGH 

WISH MY DAD COULD HEAR ME SINGING' THIS OLD TEXAS LULLABY 

DADDY LEFT ME THIS OLD GUITAR, THOUGH I NEVER QUITE KNEW WHY 

HE SAID SOMEDAY I'D BE FAMOUS LIKE THAT TEXAS LULLABY 

BUT IT'S BEEN A MONTH OF SUNDAYS SINCE I SEEN THAT EDGE FLY 

AND NOBODY WANTS TO LISTEN TO A TEXAS LULLABY
