Send "Colors Are All The Same" ringtone to your cell

she was born in college station; her daddy had a farmer's phd*

Her first steps were taken with the corps on kyle field

When she graduated she bought a maroon pick-up truck

They celebrated down at the dixie chicken when she opened her vet practice up

Now he was born austin his daddy had a store down on the drag

Ever since the school had opened relatives were longhorn grads

His room was painted orange he was getting his degree

In the band playing french horn first row second seat

Gig em aggies hook em horns

One side's maroon the other burnt orange

He saw her at a concert way before robert earl keen

She was wearin' an aggie shirt to him it didn't mean a thing

He pushed his way on through the crowd like any ol' hungry bull would do

When he was close enough he shouted "hey mind if i sit by you?"

She turned around and stared at him couldn't believe her eyes

He had a burnt orange jacket longhorns from side to side

Well she looked again and took a chance said "that's ok with me"

Something in that second chance went beyond the rivalry

When your eyes are closed and you're in the dark

The colors are all the same

Just two beating hearts not playing any games

You can gig em you can hook em

One thing'll never change

When your eyes are closed and you're in the dark

The colors are all the same

When she went to meet his mother she was wearing a cowboy hat

When they left they hugged each other mom said "you're always welcome back"

When she took him home to daddy she worried about the ring in his ear

He was makin' pretty good money but his tattoo was pretty clear

Well they decided to get married bridesmaids wore maroon

The ring bearer carried a burnt orange package to the groom

Well the ring that he gave her was diamond mounted on two thumbs

Sitting on a longhorn cradle cause when it's said and done

When your eyes are closed and you're in the dark

The colors are all the same

Just two beating hearts not playing any games

You can gig em you can hook em

Now all they had to do was figure out where they're gonna live

Well they flipped a coin and that is how she got her way over his

Well they vacationed up in kerrville they went down to the coast

Their first born they named earl you should have heard them boast

Every year at thanksgiving earl could take either side

All the birthday gifts he was given were hints they couldn't hide

There were 12th man t-shirts and longhorns of every size

His first two words were "gig em bevo" always playing both sides

Gig em aggies hook em horns

One side's maroon the other burnt orange

When it came time to go to college earl didn't know what to do

His dad wanted him in austin his mom in maroon

Well the moral of this story is if you listen to this song

Where do y'all think he went to college? well you just might be wrong

Well he tried both universities and you don't have to wonder how

He says with all sincerity...

"i'm a southwest texas bobcat now!"

When your eyes are closed and you're in the dark

The colors are all the same

Just two beating hearts not playing any games

You can gig em you can hook em
