One, two, three, four
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)
REPEAT
Well people look at me and say
Hurrah hurrah is that your horse?
(He rides from Texas on a big white horse)
Yeah
Well I'm a long tall Texan
I wear a ten gallon hat
(He rides from Texas with a ten gallon hat)
REPEAT
Well people look at me and say
Hurrah hurrah is that your hat?
(He rides from Texas with a ten gallon hat)
Yeah
Well I was walkin' down the street
With my shinin' badge
My spurs jinglin' down at my feet
I seen a man a comin'
Comin' with a gun
And I just can't be beat
Well I'm a long tall Texan
I enforce justice for the law
(He rides from Texas to enforce the law)
REPEAT
Well people look at me and say
Hurrah hurrah are you the law?
(He rides from Texas to enforce the law)
Yeah
Thank you
Thank you
Thanks a million
That's wonderful
Thanks an awful lot
