| Donald Swan, he was a millionaire
|
| From a Texas oil family
|
| But he still worked hard and believed in God
|
| He was a man of integrity
|
| He went to France on business
|
| Met a woman there named Simone
|
| She saw love in the eyes of the American guy
|
| And she didn’t like to be alone
|
| Now it’s a cow town
|
| It’s a cow town
|
| For Simone Swann
|
| Living on the Buffalo Bayou
|
| She packed up all her perfume
|
| For the gusty pioneer
|
| On a carefree note he said, «Forget your coat
|
| There’s a chill about every ten years»
|
| So they flew hand in hand to Houston
|
| Home of Exxon, Gulf and Shell
|
| He said we have an income bigger than France
|
| We all think that’s swell
|
| He loved her French accent
|
| And her knowledge of the arts
|
| And she, for one, had always fancied
|
| Having a millionaire sweetheart
|
| So they got married up in Dripping Springs
|
| Flew her Mama in from Cannes
|
| She said: «What kind of romance could make
|
| My baby leave France
|
| Donald must be some kind of Don Juan»
|
| Now she thinks about France and the nightlife there
|
| And it’s cafes and bistros
|
| Donald, a hard working, simple man
|
| Likes to see the livestock shows
|
| And when he’s not off on business
|
| He’s off checkin' out cows and pigs
|
| And she gets weary on a twelve mile prairie
|
| Starin' at the drilling rigs
|
| Now it’s a cow town
|
| It’s a cow town
|
| For Simone Swann
|
| Living on the Buffalo Bayou |
