Anyone out there have the lyrics to "I'm a long tall Texan...I ride a big white horse (He comes from texas on a big white horse)"

I don't know who the artist was. Need the lyrics for a wedding reception.

Any help appreciated, thanks in advance.

I can't seem to find the lyrics anywhere. It was recorded by lots of people, including the Mitchell Trio (with John Denver), the Beach Boys, and most recently by Lyle Lovett and Randy Newman.

Long Tall Texan
Murray Kellum

Giddy up, Giddy up.

Well I'm a long tall Texan, I ride a big white horse (He rides from Texas on a big white, horse)(2)
Well, people look at me and say, oor raw oor raw is that your horse?

Well I'm a long tall Texan, I wear a ten gallon hat. (He rides from Texas wearin' a ten gallon hat.)(2)
Well people look at me and say, oor raw oor raw is that your hat?

Well I was walking down the street with my shiny badge,
My spurs jinglin' at my feet.
I seen a man a'coming, a'coming with a gun and,
I just can't be beat

Well, I'm a long tall Texan, I aim for justice for the law, (He rides from Texas to enforce the law)(2)
Well, people look at me and say. Oor raw, oor raw, heres the law

The Mitchell Trio (Frazier-Kobluk-Denver) added one more verse to their recording.

I'm a short fat Texan, I ride a Honda one two five (He rides from Texas on a one two five) 2X
People look at me and say, aw come on you're too old to be riding a thing like that, yeah.
