The mockingbird sings to the armadillo
As the moon rises up across the western sage
It sets the stage and shines from afar
All across the night of Spanish guitar
It was at the Alamo
And saw the ones that gave their all
Rising up to show the way we are
The Grand Texas Star
The Heart of the Republic
That shines for all of Texas to see
And it boldly stands for our unity
As one for God, State, and Country
Sam Houston with the Patriots that fought and cleared the way
For the Republic, the Lone Star State
So let’s ride the trail of the El Camino Real
All ride for Texas, gone to Texas
Live large in Texas, show the way we are
Raise the Grand Texas Star
It’s the Heart of the Republic
That shines bright for everyone
On a field of red, white and blue
The Grand Texas Star
Keep shining on me and you
Keep shining on me and you
Keep shining on me and you
Up on the mesa
You can see across the sky of azure blue
A view, a vista of the star shining on you
The Grand Texas Star shines on you
It’s the Heart of the Republic
That shines for all the World to see
On a field of red, white and blue
The Grand Texas Star
It stands for me and you
The Grand Texas Star
Let it show the way we are
Let’s raise the Grand Texas Star
