The Eyes Of Texas Lyrics

THE EYES OF TEXAS

Traditional



I once did know a President, Away down South, in Texas. And, always, everywhere
he went, He saw the eyes of Texas. The Eyes of Texas are upon you, All the live
long day. The Eyes of Texas are upon you, You can not get away. Do not think
you can escape them At night or early in the morn- The Eyes of Texas are upon
you 'Till Gabriel blows his horn. Sing me a song of Prexy, Of days long since
gone by. Again I seem to great him And hear his kind reply. Smiles of gracious
welcome Before my memory rise, Again I hear him say to me, "Remember
Texas' Eyes."
