Bound For Texas - Matt Monro

I'm tired of the city

of smoke stack and steel

I' m tired of the grind

of the factory wheel

I ' m spreadin' my wings

And i'm ready to fly

To the land of the wide open sky

I'm bound for texas

bound for texas

bound for texas land

to hear the moo and rattle

of snakes and cattle

I'm bound for texas land

I will save up my money

And look for a wife

a wife who be true

And a pal for life

I'll build her a home

And a room for a child

with the roses around growing wild

I'm bound for texas

bound for texas

bound for texas land

to hear the moo and rattle

of snakes and cattle

I'm bound for texas land

I'll sing her a song

at the end of the day

a song that will drive all our cares away

I'll sing out the prairie

The blue starry skies

And the star shinin' bright in her eyes

I'm bound for texas

bound for texas

bound for texas land

to hear the moo and rattle

of snakes and cattle

I'm bound for texas land
