Donald Swann, he was a millionaire
From a Texas oil family
But he still worked hard and believed in God
He was a man of integrity
He went to France on business
Met a woman there named Simone
She saw love in the eyes of the American guy
And she didn`t like to be alone
(Chorus)
Now it`s a cow town
It`s a cow town
For Simone Swann
Living on the Buffalo Bayou
She packed up all her perfume
For the gusty pioneer
On a carefree note he said `Forget your coat
There`s a chill about every ten years.`
So they flew hand in hand to Houston
Home of Exxon, Gulf, and Shell
He said we have an income bigger than France
We all think that`s swell
He loved her French accent
And her knowledge of the arts
And she, for one, had always fancied
Havin` a millionaire sweetheart
So they got married up in Dripping Springs
Flew her mamma in from Cannes
She said, `What kind of romance could make
My baby leave France
Donald must be some kind of Don Juan.`
Now she thinks about France and the night life there
And its cafes and bistros
Donald, a hard working, simple man,
Likes to see the livestock shows
And when he`s not off on business
He`s off checkin` out cows and pigs
And she gets weary on a twelve mile prairie
Starin` at the drilling rigs
