There's a bullet in the heart tonight
in the heart of Texas
they shot it through their own backsides
we are rolling home
they shot the angel in the flesh
and now she won't protect us
we shot it to the friendly mass
we are west, we're home
like in the films of Hollywood
and the angels are descending
like Koresh said they would before too long
sing our lone star song
They had him nailed up to a T
with that T for Texas
his disciples with artillery
they held the fort inside
and by the time our story broke
wheeled in a cloud of smoke
around the T, dear god
like the films of Hollywood
and the choppers are ascending
sing our lone star song
lone star song
the south, words can't help
but escape my mouth easy prey
down the house, day upon day
day upon day, day upon day
like in the films of Hollywood
and the chopper's blast is blending
with the crack of burning wood before too long
sing our lone Star song
lone star song
lone star
