Lyrics for Prairie Rose

(Ferry/Manzanera) Texas That's where I Belong It seems to me Texas Lonesome star Shine on The big country Texas With open skies And you For company Texas Oh prairie rose How happy I should be Hey hey You can take it from me Hey hey I'll be coming, you'll see Hey hey Oh what a state to be in Hey hey You're tantalising me Texas I will compose In fancy rhyme Or just plain prose Texas A song of praise To you Prairie rose Texas Though I'm not sure I can explain Your strange allure Texas Prairie rose - A crown of thorns A scented flower Hey hey I'd better leave right away Hey hey I can hear you calling me Prairie rose
