The Vidya Gaem Musix

You know what? Fuck whatever anyone has to say against it. New Vegas was the greatest Fallout game of all time. Search your feelings, you know it to be true.

Anyway, there was a song in the game that - despite my disdain for 99% of all country music - I can never seem to get out of my head. To that end, here are the lyrics to Lone Star.



I can see that lone star from a thousand miles away,
Calling me back home though I’ve ventured far astray.
When I see that beacon shining for me all alone,
It calls me back to Texas and to home.

Lone star shine down on my home town -
Fill my memory light my way!

Cattle in the old corral, the open range all ’round -
Sunlight and the smell of new mown hay.
I remember though I’ve wandered and much happiness I’ve found,
Still I wish that I could be back there today!

I know my home is waiting for me by the river shore,
I know that all the ones I love will welcome me once more.
In dreams I see them now though it seems I’m bound to roam,
My thoughts are still of Texas and of home.

Cattle in the old corral, the open range all ’round -
Sunlight and the smell of new mown hay.
I remember though I’ve wandered and much happiness I’ve found -
Still I wish that I could be back there today!

I know my home is waiting for me by the river shore,
I know that all the ones I love will welcome me once more.
In dreams I see them now though it seems I’m bound to roam,
My thoughts are still of Texas and of home.
