"Pretty Miss Lone Star"


Home ] Up ]



The prettiest hometown queen,
was someone she was proud to be
Won the Lone Star pageant
Then headed out for Hollywood to follow her dream

She worked real hard, won a brand new car
Left a fine southern home, to make it on her own
Pretty Miss Lone Star

Pretty Miss Lone Star
We’re wondering how you are
Do you miss San Anton’, when are you coming home

Pretty Miss Lone Star?
Pretty Miss Lone Star
Let us know how you are
Do you miss everyone, are you having fun
Pretty Miss Lone Star?

Started paying her dues and
tried to prove what she could do

She had what it takes and wasn’t past learning ‘bout a thing or two
But never thought it would be so hard to make it as a movie-star
Getting by with a job in a restaurant on Sunset Boulevard

Headed home last fall, but got a telephone call
One of a hundred
interviews she’d been to at a hundred rehearsal halls

And when they gave her a break everybody said, "She’s great!"
"Can you change your plans, this is your big chance,

San Anton’ can wait."
