I was rambling through a Texas border town
Just another guy with plenty of time
She was wandering too when her eye caught mine
In the panhandle town along the border line

Well the night was cold and dreary
And the rain that was a-falling sure was falling fast 
And I was getting leery cause I'd left another dearie
In a town I'd passed
But I'll never more roam from this border town
Cause I married that gal and then we settled down
