Verse 1:
Today’s the big day; gonna load up the big truck
Pack up the cooler, get the grill all fired up
Fly me the colors of my white and orange favorite
Party with my friends from the back of the tailgate
Circle up the RVs; crank up the boom box
Listen to the pre-game, party in the parking lot
Girls are in their jean skirts, circled in a huddle
The Horns are gettin’ ready, to run through the tunnel
Chorus:
You bring the drinks, and I’ll bring ice
I’ll bring the grill and you spark the light
You bring the Willie; I’ll bring the Strait
It’s a Texas Longhorn Tailgate
Round up the trucks; we’re hitting the road
Follow the Horns wherever they go
Gametime is near, I can hardly wait
It’s a Texas Longhorn Tailgate
We’ve got a party in Austin tonight!
Verse 2:
Workin’ on a sun tan, blacktop pavement
Hotter than the heat from a hot rod engine
Southern sweet tea, nothin’ like the real thing
Nothin’ could be better than a crowd on game day
Daddy’s on the grill; Mama’s makin’ cole slaw
Kids playin’ two hand touch like all stars
Waiting on the corn bread, BBQ, brisket--
Better get it quick or ya just might miss it
Chorus
I can hear that stadium rockin, ya’ll
Bridge:
Let’s go; it’s game day—make ourselves a good day
Hundred thousand on their feet, Longhorns screamin’
Hangin’ in the parking lot, making new friends
We do it every weekend and the party never ends
Chorus
