I left my heart down in Mexico Some senorita not so long ago Who I thought about each night and day Oh, what can I say? It's such a foolish thing to do But now I've fallen for somebody new That sweet Shana as she changed my life Oh, what a night Now I know everything is better here in Texas There's no place like my home, San Antone Dancing the floor in Helotes When I saw her standing alone Now Mexico ain't nothing but a memory Pleasant as it might've been, it's gone I'd rather be here north of the border The place where I belong Her love is flowing like a Rio Grande I'm crazy 'bout her, don't you understand? So now don't look for me in Mexico Oh, there's no reason to go Now I know everything is better here in Texas There's no place like my home, San Antone Dancing the floor in Helotes When I saw her standing alone Now Mexico ain't nothing but a memory Pleasant as it might've been, it's gone I'd rather be here north of the border The place where I belong Now Mexico ain't nothing but a memory Pleasant as it might've been, it's gone I'd rather be here north of the border The place where I belong Now I know everything is better here in Texas There's no place like my home, San Antone Dancing the floor in Helotes When I saw her standing alone Now Mexico ain't nothing but a memory Pleasant as it might've been, it's gone I'd rather be here north of the border The place where I belong I'd rather be here north of the border The place where I belong The place where I belong Texas is where I belong
