Deep In The Heart Of Texas!

Music by Don Swander and Lyrics by June Hershey

This is an American popular song elaborating on the merits of the state of Texas.

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

( Instrumental Opening )

The Stars at Night are big an' bright . . .
Deep in the Heart of Texas!
The Prairie Sky is wide an' 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!

( Instrumental break )

Coyotes wale along the Trail . . .
Deep in the Heart of Texas!
The Rabbits rush around the Brush . . .
Deep in the Heart of Texas!

( Instrumental break )

The Cowboys cry 'Cai Yippi Yiyi'. . .
Deep in the Heart of Texas!
The Doggies bawl and bawl and bawl . . .
Deep in the Heart of Texas!

Deep in the Heart of Texas!
Deep in the Heart of Texas

Is it true that Brazilian Jui-Jitsu is outlawed in Texas but every orther Martial Art as well as every type of firearm and weaponry is considered to be perfectly lagitamate by Texas Law( with the exceptions of modern military weapons of course)? I heard that you guys outlawed it because it was used in 85% off unarmed assults in the past year in the State.

@TheSecurityGuard02 Don't have an answer for you. Hope someone does.

@TheSecurityGuard02 No problem, but I would check local laws to be sure. It may be a city law, like you were saying. i haven't ever heard that you couldn't train BJJ, but just to make sure you are within the law I'd check. Hope it helps! Good luck in your training!!

@BodybuildinginTX

Thanks, my source for that was more than questionable anyways. I live in the East so I am not very familar with Texas Law and ended up being gulable to any myths about it. The guy who told me currently lives in Texas and works as a Police Officer and he siad that he couldn't trian in BJJ becuase it was illegal there. Ethier this is true just for his city or he's giving me BS altogether.

[BodybuildinginTX]

@TheSecurityGuard02 No, it's perfectly legal. I myself have trained in Brazilian Jui-Jitsu.

How is it that seemingly so many Germans like the song?..
