Hill Country Love Song Songtext
von Billy Joe Shaver

When the mornin′ sun comes peepin' o′er the mountains
And nature's melody begins to play
I wonder how a song that seems to be so short and sweet
Could be as good again another day


Oh, I loved you with a passion hot as sun
And I picture when you were as fresh as spring
I held you when the autumn wind blew in the winter cold
And warmed you 'til the meadow turned to green

Now the evenin′ sun is sinking, moving homeward
As I bid another peaceful day goodbye
Our home is on the south side of an old hill country town
Nestled here beneath the Texas sky

And when you touch my hand, I know that you still love me
And I know you know I′ll always feel the same
'Til every season′s day has come and gone, and come and gone
And come and gone, and come and gone again
