Prairie Rose Lyrics
(Texas) Oh that's where I belong it seems to me
(Texas) Lonesome star shine on the big country
(Texas) With your open skies and you for company
(Texas) Oh prairie rose, how happy I should be
Hey, hey, You can take it from me
Hey, hey, I'll be coming, you'll see
Hey, hey, Oh what a state to be in
Hey, hey, You're tantalizing me
(Texas) I will compose in fancy rhyme or just plain prose
(Texas) A song of praise to you, prairie rose
(Texas) Though I'm not sure I can explain your strange allure
(Texas) Oh prairie rose, a crown of thorns, a scented flower
Hey, hey, I'd better leave right away
Hey, hey, I can hear you calling me
Hey, hey, Prairie rose
Hey, hey, Prairie rose
Hey, hey, Prairie rose
Hey, hey, Prairie rose
Hey, hey, Prairie rose
Hey, hey, Prairie rose
Hey, hey, Prairie rose
Hey, hey, Prairie rose
Hey, hey, Prairie rose
Hey, hey, Prairie rose
Hey, hey, Prairie rose
(Texas) Lonesome star shine on the big country
(Texas) With your open skies and you for company
(Texas) Oh prairie rose, how happy I should be
Hey, hey, I'll be coming, you'll see
Hey, hey, Oh what a state to be in
Hey, hey, You're tantalizing me
(Texas) A song of praise to you, prairie rose
(Texas) Though I'm not sure I can explain your strange allure
(Texas) Oh prairie rose, a crown of thorns, a scented flower
Hey, hey, I can hear you calling me
Hey, hey, Prairie rose
Hey, hey, Prairie rose
Hey, hey, Prairie rose
Hey, hey, Prairie rose
Hey, hey, Prairie rose
Hey, hey, Prairie rose
Hey, hey, Prairie rose
Hey, hey, Prairie rose
Hey, hey, Prairie rose
Hey, hey, Prairie rose
Hey, hey, Prairie rose

It's about Jerry hall.
Think you done hit the bulls-eye there, pardner...
Think you done hit the bulls-eye there, pardner...
Sounds like driving across the Panhandle with the windows open. No air conditioning. Thunderstorm in the distance. A beautiful blonde at your side. Don't mess with TEXAS - don't put no beans in my chile neither...
A glorious song (which is the only kind of songs Roxy Music ever made).
Here's a good read if you can find it: http://www.amazon.com/Jerry-Halls-Tall-Tales-Hall/dp/067150911X
Found one in a thrift shop years ago. Jerry mentions Roxy Music in passing - but devotes many pages to some rocker, Mark Jagger from some other group that was famous back then, can't remember their name right now...
I see the books are now worth a bit more than I paid!
The Praire Rose blooms again:
