Ship my body back to Texas if I die out on the trail I won't worry where they bury me, just put me in the mail Lay me down in cowtown where I'll never be alone Or pushin' up the rose of San Antone

Ship my body back to Texas if I die out on the trail I won't worry where they bury me, just put me in the mail Lay me down in cowtown where I'll never be alone Or pushin' up the rose of San Antone

Now, plant me in the parking lot outside the Astrodome Or pushin' up the rose of San AntoneTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
