I can't sleep, what's wrong with me?
Been this way almost a week
When caring friends ask me why
A silent tear comes to my eye
I'm a lone star lonely, a lone star sad
Never knew that state of mind could make me feel so bad
I must have stayed too long in Tennessee
I can feel it coming on me
I see a million stars tonight
But I'm a lone star lonely
I miss my home, old San Antonio
The blue bonnet springs
The cowboy songs
My heart is turning southwesterly
Where a brown-eyed girl waits for me
I'm a lone star lonely, a lone star sad
Never knew that state of mind could make me feel so bad
I must have stayed too long in Tennessee
I can feel it coming on me
I see a million stars tonight
But I'm a lone star lonely
I see a million stars tonight
But I'm a lone star lonely
I miss my home, old San Antonio
