I'd Like To Be In Texas When They Roundup In The Spring - Don Edwards[00:00:00]
In the lobby of a big hotel in New York Town one day[00:00:09]
Sat a bunch of fellows telling yarns[00:00:19]
Just to pass the time away[00:00:23]
They told of places where they'd been and different things they'd seen[00:00:27]
Some preferred Chicago Town while others New Orleans[00:00:36]
In a corner in an old armchair sat a man whose hair was gray[00:00:45]
He listened to them eagerly to what they had to say[00:00:55]
They asked him where he'd like to be his clear old voice did ring[00:01:04]
I'd like to be in Texas for the round up in the spring[00:01:13]
I can see the cattle grazing o'er the hills at early morn[00:01:25]
I can see the campfires smoking at the breaking of the dawn[00:01:33]
I can hear the bronco's neighing I can hear the cowboy sing[00:01:44]
I'd like to be in Texas for the round up in the spring[00:01:53]
They sat and listened carefully to each word he had to say[00:02:04]
They knew the old man sitting there had been a top hand in his day[00:02:12]
They asked him for a story of his life out on the plains[00:02:21]
Slowly he removed his hat then quietly began[00:02:30]
