Cowboy in the Alps

Couplet 1 Headed north from Texas, left the sun behind, Found myself in France, with something else in mind. Came for snowy peaks, but oh, what did I find? Ordered a burger, but they served a different kind. Pré-refrain A plate of melted cheese, nothing I recognized, No beef or buns in sight, I was quite surprised. Asked the friendly chef, "What’s this creamy dish?" He laughed and said, "It’s tartiflette, enjoy your wish!" Refrain Dancing on the Alps, with a cowboy swing, Missing Texas heat and the warmth it brings. From country roads to snowy peaks, Cowboy boots and Alpine chic. Couplet 2 Every bite's delicious, but it’s not my home, These chilly mountain winds, far from what I've known. Give me Texas plains and that blazing sun, The Lone Star State, where my heart is from. Pre-choeur From barbecues under a big blue sky, To Alpine views and nights so nigh. Feels like worlds apart, under the same moon, My heart beats warm, hope to see home soon.(oh yeah) Refrain Dancing on the Alps, with a cowboy swing, Missing Texas heat and the warmth it brings. From country roads to snowy peaks, Cowboy boots and Alpine chic. Choeur With my guitar in hand, strumming a sunny beat, Missing my Texas sun, these Alps can’t compete. Oh, how it chills, far from my warm flatland, Yearning for the heat of that Lone Star sand. Outro So here’s to the places that we roam, From the heat of Texas to where cold winds moan. Always a cowboy, wherever I stand, With my heart in Texas, and a guitar in my hand.
