you mean this one?
GOING BACK TO TEXAS
Started out from Texas about a year ago
Started out to make myself a name
Going back to Texas for my heart is sad and sore
My weary feet are getting mighty lame
Going back to my good old Texas home, home, home
Down by the sleepy Rio Grande
Where the lonesome turtledove is grieving
And the moon is shining on the sand
Going back where the longhorn cattle roam, roam, roam
Where your best friend is your bronco and your gun
And I know I'll never more be leaving
Texas home, my rambling days are done
Give me back my saddle, give me back my gun
Give me back that good old bronc of mine
Give me back the campfires when the day is gone
Let me hear a lonesome coyote whine
Going back to my good old Texas home, home, home
Down by the sleepy Rio Grande
Where the lonesome turtledove is grieving
And the moon is shining on the sand
Going back where the longhorn cattle roam, roam, roam
Where your best friend is your bronco and your gun
And I know I'll never more be leaving
Texas home, my rambling days are done
