Lyrics

Livin in the Alamo town
with the friendliest people around
San Antonio is the place I want to be
livin ever after happily

Takin in the river city sights
They know how to party all night
laughin and dancin the Cotton Eyed Joe
its a feelin you just gotta know

(break)
You may drink a Colorado beer
and a shot of Amareto is alright
But if you want to laugh and dance all night
you'd better grab a Loner Star and hold on tight

Its a party on Fiesta day
you'll be puttin fajitas away
Jalepeno peppers and chili petines
will make you want to scream

(but) San Antonio nights
are a mighty beautiful sight
The loner star state's sure gotta a big sky
it'll take you on a natural hugh

(break)
Cowboys, ranchers and doggies all around
when the rodeo comes to town
You can have the time of your life
ropin and a ridin under collosium lights

So livin in the Alamo town
sure does make me proud
You can have L.A. and New York and all that snow up north

And if some yankee asks me
if this is the place he aughta be
I'll just tell him to buy a pair of boots
'cause the rattlesnakes are too big to shoot ...
and the scorpions will sleep in your shoes ...
and the Mexicans are about to revolt ...
and the indians will tie you up in ropes ...
but y'all come back soon ... and visit me
