(Hank CardKristen Nelson)

You've all heard tell of Pecos Bill

Who rode a cyclone 'til it broke

Well, at the Texas State Fair

There's an even bigger bloke

That cowpoke's name is Big Tex

Fifty-two feet tall he stands

Outside he's just a mannequin

But inside he's a man

And a man gets lonely

So his heart was full of woe

Until he met a filly

By the name of Heather Jo

So at twilight on the border

As the smoke begins to curl

The heard all loves to hear this story

About Big Tex's girl

All day long she sits beside Big Tex

As he greets the folks at the State Fair

You may say her motives are complex

I think she's just happy sitting there

She grew up in North Dallas full of angst

So she dyes her hair and wears black leather

But now to that angst she says
