Deep In The Heart Of Texas
"Deep in the Heart of Texas" is an American popular song elaborating on the merits of the state of Texas.

The 1941 song features lyrics by June Hershey and music by Don Swander. The song was recorded by Perry Como with Ted Weems and His Orchestra on December 9 of that year for Decca Records in Los Angeles, California. It was a single release on the flip side of the song "Ollie Ollie Out's In Free." "Deep in the Heart of Texas" spent five weeks at the top of Your Hit Parade in 1942.

The song's title was borrowed for the name of a 1942 Western film starring Johnny Mack Brown as a man instrumental in restoring Texas to the United States following the American Civil War. It featured Tex Ritter and the Jimmy Wakely Trio singing the title song. Gene Autry sang the song in Heart of the Rio Grande (1942) and his version may be the most well known.

"Deep In The Heart Of Texas"

The stars at night, are big and bright,
deep in the heart of Texas,
The prairie sky is wide and high,
deep in the heart of Texas.
The sage in bloom is like perfume,
deep in the heart of Texas,
Reminds me of, the one I love,
deep in the heart of Texas.

The coyotes wail, along the trail,
deep in the heart of Texas,
The rabbits rush, around the brush,
deep in the heart of Texas.
The cowboys cry, "Ki-yip-pee-yi,"
deep in the heart of Texas,
The dogies bawl, and bawl and bawl,
deep in the heart of Texas.

The University of Texas Longhorn Band performs the song during each football pregame at Darrell K. Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium; The Spirit of Houston Cougar Marching Band often performs the tune for home football games at Robertson Stadium; and the Texas Christian University Horned Frog Marching Band performs an arrangement during each pregame at Amon Carter Stadium. Fans sing "Take Me Out to the Ballgame", followed by "Deep In the Heart of Texas" during the seventh-inning stretch of Houston Astros, Texas Rangers and Rice University Owls baseball games.

The BBC banned thing song at work in 1941, since the workers would bang tools together and clap along. Seriously, that's how catchy it is.

My Dad used to sing this song a lot when I was a kid.

He’s an Asian man for Kansas.

I grew up in Seattle, Washington, and I had to move to Texas with my family because of financial issues... But I have to say, Washington was pretty gloomy and shit, and living down here in the Rio Grande Valley is sunny and chill. Not to mention the kick ass high school football that is down here too! Love Texas and I don't plan on leaving here any time soon!

Never ever been to Texas, or the States. But I coincidentally heard this song as a kid while reading my first ever Wild West story. Almost two decades later, I still always play this while reading a Western. Such a beautiful tribute to such a beautiful and unique place.

this is so nostalgic because we used to sing this every morning in elementary

Been over there from Scotland twice in the past couple of years to Houston, Austin and San Antonio. Great place with fantastic people. Loved it.

Don't mess with Texas.

Went to Texas twice this year....BEAUTIFUL state! People down there are so proud to be Texans, I can only hope that I will be one someday!

I remember that in elementary school we’d say the pledge of allegiance, national anthem and sing this song. If my mind serves me right, we elementary kids were all so proud and belched this song out with pride. I have lived in many other states and other countries and the pride of being a Texan is unrivaled.
