Green, Pat - Texas In 1880 Lyrics
I can hear the wind whisper my name.
Tellin' me it's time to head out again.
My horses are trailered and the lights are shut down,
An' I'm long overdue for headin' outta town.
Just enough winnin' to make the next show.
Sometimes you make eight, sometimes you hit dirt.
Go on, pin another number to the back of my shirt
And I'll ride that pony fast,
Like a cowboy from the past.
Be young and wild and free,
Like Texas in 1880.
Just like Texas in 1880.
New York City down to San Antone;
There's boys that are ridin' for legendary fame,
And our money's all gone but we still ride the same.
Our hearts'll get broken, and our heads'll get busted.
But we'll always believe the things that we trusted.
There'll be those nights when glory comes round,
And we'll tip our hats and wave to the crowd
And then ride that pony fast,
Like a cowboy from the past.
Be young and wild and free,
Like Texas in 1880.
Just like Texas in 1880.
Someday when you're older,
Someone'll see,
That buckle hangin' there on your belt.
Ask you just how it felt!
To ride that pony fast,
Like a cowboy from the past.
Be young and wild and free,
Like Texas in 1880.
Just like Texas in 1880.
Just Like Texas.
Take me home to Texas
Ah play it just like Texas
Play it Just like Texas

Be young wild an free
Oh yeah mix me another drink got a fever they call the rodeo
About all I could do as far as rodeo would be to watch or maybe open the chute gate. But when this song kicks off it makes me want to go.
RDR 2 🤙
Wow amazing photos !
God bless all true Texans!
Love Texas... Still living free..
This Arizonan stands for Texas. We should all ask ourselves whether we deserve this song.
Takes me back to the 1990’s, I sure do miss that shit...
I remember me and any Senior on my high school football team belting out this song before and after our very last football game of the season
Pat,I didn't know you sang this song with Radney Foster.I thought that it was a different man.I haven't heard that song since I was very young. 10 years old to be exact. Then I heard Just call me lonesome when I was about 11.
Like Radney's own version of this song with Foster and Lloyd
Long live the Republic ❤❤❤ God Bless Texas
Texas today.? We’re still rock solid Texas
well, you got Beto O'rourke..... :( Im sorry :(
Born in Texas. Will always love it.
Texas is great, it’s where my people come from. Texas is almost as good as Arizona!!
I lived in Texas and love. Great state with great people
This song makes me wanna go out and buy a pair of cowboy boots!
GOD BLESS Texas

A very finely done video ,just top shelf,I'm a so cal rodeo competer of the last 25years ,5 buckles ,as the song says "some day when your older someone will see that buckle hanging there on your belt ,and ask you how it felt " that's the best line in the whole song ,,the whole song is awesome, this is dedicated to Stephanie " Ka-Neen" Escalara , my soulmate who was called up to heavens frontline last year on September 23,and arrived on the 27th to be fitted with her real wings ,love and miss you ,more than the world its self .keep watching over me ,Jayne and the 3 c 's ,,your always in and on my heart,mind and soul ,,loving you endlessly ,Jeffrey

My words cant describe how this song makes me feel. Love it and Love being born a multi-generational Texan!
This song reminds me of my days as a long haul truck driver several years ago whenever I made runs out West. Now whenever I hear this song, it makes me wanna jump on my Harley and ride off into the sunset
A Beautiful State Forged By Hard Working Brave People! God Bless Texas

This is a video for a song, not political ramblings.
YEA UHM NO RETHUGLICUNTS ARE RUINING THE USA WITH THEIR FASCIST RUSSIAN BULLSHIT GO KILL YOUR SELF
Tell all the liberals in the entertainment industry to shut their mouths because that is the real problem.
LOL, right. And libtards have their dummies such as Don Lemon, Brian Williams, Rachel Maddow and everyone else on the Communist News Network, More Socialsim & Nothing But Crap or Nothing But Communism.
my brother loves this song
Everyone gonna ignore the fact they're hangin some up in the street at 3:20 lmao 😂😂 fuck yeah!! Bring back the old times!
True. Still a kickass song though.
While this is amazing, I still prefer the original Foster & Lloyd version
@ 1:07 ; looks like a Mason Lodge ?
BigBrownNativeAmerican yes it is
Prefer the original song, not that you can tell much of a difference. But great job at the video for this, I love seeing all the old photographs!
Thank you so much! Great tune and great quality photographs.
I was born 150 years toooo late! ha!

One of the best songs ever made!
" I have said that Texas is a state of mine but I think it is more than that. It is a mystique closely approximating a religion.
And this is true to the extent where people either passionately love Texas or passionately hate it, and, as in other religions, few people dare to inspect it for fear of losing their bearings in mystery or paradox. But I think there will be little quarrel with my feeling that Texas is one thing. For all it's enormous range of space, climate and physical appearance, for all the internal squabbles, contentions and strivings, Texas has a tight cohesiveness, perhaps stronger than any other section of America.
Rich. poor, Panhandle, Gulf, city or country, Texas is the obsession, the proper study, and the passionate possession of all Texans."
- John Steinbeck, TRAVELS WITH CHARLEY; IN SEARCH OF AMERICA
Brian Bois Gilbert Mate. I'm from Australia and agree entirely, fell in love with Texas about 15 years ago, been back nearly every year since!
Oh I miss Texas. Me and my lady Texas have been apart for too long. I speak to West Texas. Abilene.
