In the western part of Texas 
90 miles from of San Antone 
There's a place I go each summer 
When I get the urge to roam 

I stand out on the highway 
If I couldn't catch a ride I'd walk 
To Garner State Park 
Let's go to Garner State Park 
Come on along to Garner State Park 

Where the prettiest girls in Texas 
And from everywhere 
Parade their city slicking clothes 
And bought some boots and western wear 
We swam all through the day 
And that's when it gets dark 
At Garner State Park 
Let's go to Garner State Park 
We gotta go to Garner State Park 

At the dance I met a girl 
She was from old Houston town 
She was the queen of the park 
She was the prettiest girl around 
We walked down to the water 
We found a big rock, began to talk 
At Garner State Park 
Come on and go to Garner State Park 

Pretty Cloud to Houston town 
San Antone and everywhere around 

Next thing I knew it was 4 am 
She said my Mother's surely worried 
About where I am 
And with the Texas sky above 
We couldn't help that we had fallen in love 
At Garner State Park 

Everything's great after dark 
When you're at Garner State Park 

But the summer was soon over 
And we had to say goodbye 
I said we'll see each other next year 
As a tear fell from her eye 
When I came I knew no sorrow 
Now I'm leaving with a broken heart 
From Garner State Park 

Everything's great after dark 
When you're at Garner State Park 

Oh, but I'll be back again next year 
I'll be back again next year 
Yeah 
I'll be back again next year 
I'll be back again next year 
Yeah 
I'll be back again next year 
I'll be back again next year 
Yeah 
I'll be back again next year 
I'll be back again next year 
Yeah 
I'll be back again next year
