Bandera Highway

San Antonio Texas
Is the place where I was born
Went back there a couple of weeks ago
To reminisce with my old friends

And I heard some real good country music
And fell in love with a rodeo man
His eyes are bluer than a misty morning
Think I'm going back again

Take me there Bandera Highway
To the places where I grew
'Neath the mesquite trees and the warm summer breeze
You gotta savor all your childhood memories memories

Drivin' slow with the window down
By the river I could see
Deja vu was knocking at my door
Something here remembers me

And I'm a long long way from yesterday
So far away I couldn't see
And somehow lately I decided I
Would look up a page of history

Take me there Bandera Highway...

Well I've turned some corners around this old town
And I've seen battle scars round the Alamo
And it sure amazes me to think about
How they fought so long ago In this old town

But here I go to pack my bags again
And follow the lone star in the sky
And I don't think I could ever leave San Antone
Without a teardrop in my eyes

Take me there Bandera Highway...
