HE'LL WALTZ ACROSS TEXAS NO MORE
(Written by Jim Owen)

Now at last it's happened, What I feared for so long
An era is over and E. T. is gone
So swing wide those pearly gates
And say welcome troubador
He'll waltz across texas no more.

What a grand reunion In heaven there must be
As Hank and Jimmie Rodgers say welcome E. T.
He's joined all the great ones
Who's gone on before
He'll waltz across texas no more.

No more driftwood on the river
Or I'll get along somehow
No rainbow at midnight
When the world turned you down
And no filipino baby or walkin' the floor
He'll waltz across texas no more.

[spoken]
E. T.], I wanted to write a special song for you
Because you were such a special man to us
You helped so many of us
And everyong whose life you touched
Remembered he was loved
So rest in peace E. T., you've earned it
[SUNG]
You'll waltz across texas no more.

[Bridge]
And long live your mem'ry and long live your name
From now on country music won't ever be the same
E. T., we're gonna miss you and those texas troubadors
You'll waltz across texas no more.
