An El Paso hellhole couldn't get higher
White lightning moon shine tastes like fire
I drank for free till I couldn't see
I fell on the floor what I said is

"I'm blind in Texas, the lone star is hot tonight
I'm blind in Texas, the cowboys have taken my eyes
My eyes, my eyes"

I drank Dallas whiskey, lost my mind
Had high balls in Houston three for dime
Everything starts to spin loaded on gin
I fell out the door what I said is

"I'm blind in Texas, the lone star is hot tonight
I'm blind in Texas, the cowboys have taken my eyes"

San Antonio and the West Texas town, El Paso
Corpus Christi and Waco the yellow rose is wild

Raisin' hell in Austin just after sundown
When the Hoosegow police decided to come 'round they said
"Boy what's the matter with you, what you trying to do?"
I looked at the man and I said

"I'm blind in Texas, I'm blind in Texas
I'm blind in Texas, I'm blind in Texas
I'm blind in Texas, I'm blind in Texas
I'm blind in Texas, the lone star is hot tonight"

I'm blind in Texas, I'm blind in Texas
I'm blind
