Lyrics Calvin Russell

Calvin Russell

Down In Texas

It's the land of soul

Rock and Roll

The home of the blues

Pure country too

It's the hallowed ground

All around

It's full of black hippies

Rednecks and Mexes

Most of my friends stay

Way way down in Texas

In the land of musical delight

Funky days and starry nights

Way down in the central south

That's still the land of Hush Yo Mouth

Brothers and the sisters too

They get down and boogaloo

The place is still way back to see

like the end of the nineteenth century

Rock and Roll

The home of the blues

Pure country too

It's the hallowed ground

All around

It's full of black hippies

Rednecks and Mexes

Most of my friends stay

Down in Texas

We cannot afford no more

Of America´s so-called

drug-war

Don´t you think it´s mighty queer

How they push cigarettes and beer

Afraid of herbs afraid of cid

His ego loves to hate his Id

It´s too complex to catalog

I saw Onward Thru The Fog

Way way down

Down in Texas
