You reared me and raised me I'm your native son
Always forgiving the wrong things I've done
Locked up in Little Rock broke down to the bone
I'll be free tomorrow I'm comin' home
Sweet Mother Texas rock-a-bye me
I've seen all the places that I want to see
It's time this ol' cowboy put his mind at ease
Sweet Mother Texas rock-a-bye me
She laughed at my boots and my slow Fort Worth drawl
I bend a lot but be damned if I'll crawl
I'll never be what she wants me to be
Sweet Mother Texas rock-a-bye me
Sweet Mother Texas rock-a-bye me
I've seen all the places that I want to see
It's time this ol' cowboy put his mind at ease
Sweet Mother Texas rock-a-bye me
Sweet Mother Texas rock-a-bye me
