Deep In The Heart Of Texas
| Tune: | Traditional / Original |
|---|---|
| Category: | Do As I Do |
| Link: | Performance Example |
| Notes: | Classic call-and-response campfire song. The group claps the rhythmic "clap clap clap clap" after each line of "Deep in the heart of Texas." Gets louder and faster as enthusiasm builds. Works especially well with exaggerated pauses to cue the clapping. |
