St. Maria, watch over us please As we around in this dangerous world Thank Mother Maria, there's so sweet As the undying love of a South Texas
The three in the front seat, they sat on each That green and white '58 Fairlane it drive Down farm roads past fields, seeming like no big deal As it was happening I never a thing
But now looking it seems like it was everything Singing with mom just so we hear ourselves sing a drink from the cold can in daddy's lap Protected by only a small brown paper sack
And the wind the echoes of long faded voices And they'd sing me a song that the old sang And I didn't know what the words or anything I was singing because I was supposed to
St. Maria, watch over us please As we wander in this dangerous world Mother Maria, there's nothing so sweet As the undying of a South Texas girl
And with the windows wide open, it hot to us anyway We three bound together on a day like any day They told me and taught me and me and bought me Whatever I wanted from the corner you them
You said the name Christi means the body of Jesus Pronounce it Refugio, city folks don't know It looks like Palacios, but sounds like Just listen the next you're watchin' Sid Lasher
And the wind blew the echoes of long faded And would sing me a song that the old cowboys sang And I didn't know what the words meant or I was singing
St. Mother Maria, watch us please As we around in this dangerous world Thank Mother Maria, there's nothing so As the undying love of a South Texas
And I didn't know the words meant or anything I was just
Now these days with car and open container laws Sew correctness, but leaves no room for Santa Claus Sitting right next to me, she looks like that be Song that sang for me
And the windows wide open, it feels hot to us anyway The two bound together on a day like any day
The wind blows the of long faded voices And they sing us a song that the old cowboys And now that I know what the words mean and I'm singing
St. Maria, watch over us please As we wander around in this dangerous Thank Mother Maria, there's nothing so As the love of a South Texas girl
St. Mother Maria, over us please As we stumble around in this dangerous Thank Mother Maria, there's nothing so As the undying love of a Texas girl As the undying love of a South girl
St. Mother Maria, over us please As we wander in this dangerous world Mother Maria, there's nothing so sweet As the undying love of a South girl
St. Mother Maria, over us please As we wander around in this dangerous Thank Mother Maria, nothing so sweet As the love of a South Texas girl
