A song of encouragement and an anthem of strength for victims of Hurricane Harvey.
Lyrics
Soul of Texas
I turn on the news,
don’t know what else I can do.
The wind keeps on blowin’
Families lost and broken
The water keeps flowin’
and devil willin’
The creek gonna rise
Oh, it’s gonna rise
But this storm’s got nothin’
Ain’t got nothin’ on our pride!
The soul of Texas
Strong, independence
People helping people
No matter race, creed, or name.
Oh, it ain’t the hurricane
That can’t be tamed,
It’s the soul of Texas.
The streets are now rivers
In all the lonely Texas towns
But love of God and Country
Ain’t something that can drown.
It’s hell in high water.
But I’m tellin’ you now,
We may be goin’ under
But we ain’t goin’ down!
The soul of Texas
Strong, independence
People helping people
No matter race, creed, or name.
Oh, it ain’t the hurricane
That can’t be tamed,
It’s the soul of Texas.
Bridge:
People helping people
We may be going under
People helping people
We ain’t going down
People helping people
We may be going under
People helping people
But we ain’t goin’ down
People helping people
We may be goin’ under
People helping people
But we ain’t goin’ down
People helping people
No we ain’t, no we ain’t
People helping people
We may be going under
But we ain’t goin’ down!
The soul of Texas
Strong, independence
People helping people
No matter race, creed, or name. (No matter race, creed, or name)
Oh, it ain’t the hurricane
That can’t be tamed,
It’s the soul of Texas.
