[00:12.06]	Up at Henry’s Bar & Grill
[00:14.61]	On the north side of town
[00:17.32]	I saw a man reach up to heaven
[00:19.98]	And pull a song on down
[00:22.80]	To a smoke filled room of misfits
[00:25.18]	Young and old and big and small
[00:27.94]	And with the laughing eyes of the Buddha
[00:30.67]	He shared it with us all
[00:33.66]	And every soul in that roadhouse
[00:37.27]	Felt the power of his song
[00:40.06]	Through life’s joys and sorrows
[00:42.71]	He brought us together as one
[00:45.43]	They called him “God’s own yodeler,
[00:48.06]	The Pavarotti of the plains”
[00:50.55]	There’s no bigger voice in Texas
[00:53.19]	Don Walser was his name
[01:00.14]	He was raised out in Lamesa
[01:02.60]	Just a boy when his mamma died
[01:05.42]	With daddy at the mill all night
[01:08.03]	In that empty house he cried
[01:10.98]	He’d climb up in the oak tree
[01:13.29]	To sing his broken heart
[01:16.23]	The neighbors gathered in the yard
[01:18.91]	Listening in the dark
[01:22.95]	Singing songs about West Texas
[01:25.37]	Cowboys and old John Deeres
[01:28.35]	Rodeos and drive-ins
[01:30.81]	And the thrill of teenage years
[01:33.39]	They called him “God’s own yodeler,
[01:35.93]	The Pavarotti of the plains”
[01:38.56]	There’s no bigger voice in Texas
[01:41.21]	Don Walser was his name
[01:48.04]
[02:30.82]	From the honky-tonks and dance halls
[02:33.37]	To the grand ole opery
[02:36.15]	Don Walser brought a smile
[02:38.66]	To every fan who came to see
[02:41.55]	Now it’s oxygen and wheelchairs
[02:44.02]	And trips to the docs in town
[02:46.78]	The stays kept getting longer
[02:49.32]	He knew he was glory bound
[02:53.55]	My friend, your work is done here
[02:55.99]	And I’d say you did it well
[02:58.87]	Your voice rings down from heaven
[03:01.32]	All the way to the devil himself
[03:04.06]	And now you’re God’s own yodeler
[03:06.67]	High above the Texas plains
[03:09.21]	We miss you here in Austin
[03:11.94]	With love we speak you name
[03:16.72]
