Met her in Austin
She was totally awesome
She had a western drawl
She was pure Texas y'all
Said her name was Eileen
She hailed from Abilene
She'd been known
to drink a few
And show off her Texas tattoo
You'd want to hold on to Dallas
Spend the night in San Antone
Reach Amarillo by mornin'
All the cowboys want a view
of her Texas tattoo
She'd call your bluff
This lady was tough
Yeah she'd slap you silly
if you didn't like Willie
She had eyes
blue as that Texas sky
And if tequilla's
what she ordered
You might make it
to the border
And hope you can
hold on to Dallas
Spend the night in San Antone
Reach Amarillo by mornin'
All the cowboys want a view
of her Texas tattoo
Hand in hand
we'd cross that Rio Grande
And deep in the heart of Texas
I'd be her man
If you can hold on to Dallas
Spend the night in San Antone
Reach Amarillo by mornin'
You'd be the cowboy
with the view
One of the chosen few
to see that lady's Texas tattoo
Ah yes I'd be her Romeo
down in San Antonio
She drives me wacky
in Waco
