There's a full moon tonight, on the prairie, a memory just rode into view
Of a boy, a buckskin, and an ole Spaniel dog, in the hills where the bluebonnets grew
Well I was deep in the heart of Texas, just a kid 'bout 13 at the time
Runnin' wild through the mesquite, the cedars and cactus. it's been years, but your
still on my mind
Chorus
No matter where I might wander
There's a memory that I'll never lose
The Lone Star shines bright, in my heart tonight
And I've got the bluebonnet blues
I remember those warm summer's evenin's, playin' out under the stars
Back then I never dreamed we'd ever be leavin', aw, but I guess things just don't stay
as they are
Well the years and the miles came between us, but tonight as I'm dreamin' of you
Once again, I'm a kid, in the sweet arms of Texas and I've got the blue bonnet blues
Chorus
The Lone Star shines bright in my heart tonight
I've got the blue bonnet blues
