| I had a home out in Texas |
| Down where the bluebonnets grew |
| I had the kindest old mother |
| How happy we were just we two |
| 'Til one day the angels called her |
| That debt we all have to pay |
| She called me close to her bedside |
| These last few words to say |
| Son don’t start drinking and gambling |
| Promise you’ll always go straight |
| Ten years have passed since that parting |
| That promise I’ve broke I must say |
| I started gambling for pastime |
| At last I was just like them all |
| I bet my clothes and my money |
| Not dreaming that I’d ever fall |
| One night I bet all my money |
| Nothing was left to be seen |
| And all that I needed to break them |
| Was one card and that was a queen |
| The cards were dealt all round the table |
| Each man took a card on the draw |
| I drew the one that would beat them |
| I turned it and here’s what I saw |
| I saw my mother’s picture |
| And somehow she seemed to say |
| Son you have broken your promise |
| So I tossed the cards away |
| My winnings I gave to a newsboy |
| I knew I was wrong from the start |
| And I’ll never forget that promise |
| To my Mother the queen of my heart |
| Ah-dee-dee-yo-del-lay-ee |
| Dee-oh-dee-oh-del-lay-ee-dee-oh-del-lay-ee |
