about

I'm not from Austin and I have never been there. I know a few people from Austin, though, and they seem to like it. So I suppose it's their song, really.

lyrics

I can hear Austin
Calling my name
The call I hear
Always the same
The dusty roar
The singing rain
It's Austin
Calling my name

I'll hear it wherever I am
Sweet call to her arms
I'll answer the only way I can
Cross sky and sea and land
When Austin
Calls me home

I can hear it now
Texas' sandy rose
Her voice halfway to molasses
And I'll answer soon I know
I'll put on my shoes and start my way
Down the nearest road
Austin's calling me home

I can hear Austin
Calling my name
Calling me out from the cold
She'll take me in
And love me again
Till I'm two hundred years old
I can hear Austin
Calling my name
I'll run to her
When Austin calls my name
