Southern Part Of Texas - War, Eric Burdon

She’s from the southern part of Texas

And she was born in a hurricane

She’s from the southern part of Texas

And she was born in a hurricane

You know her mama died for freedom

She got hung by Jessie James

You know her face is so dang pretty

She brings the sunlight to the night

She learned a lesson from tequila

You gotta treat your brother right

They told her freedom was expensive

She couldn’t post no bond no bail

You know she begged the judge for mercy

He just throwed away the key
