The 1941 classic “Deep in the Heart of Texas” is an American popular song about the state of Texas with lyrics by June Hershey and music by Don Swander. It has been recorded in multiple versions, five of which were on the Billboard charts in 1942. Several university bands in Texas perform the song before football games including the University of Texas Longhorn Band and the Texas Christian University Horned Frog Marching Band, and country music singer and native Texan George Strait has the song played before he takes the stage at concerts. This simple version for SSAA voices and piano was arranged by D. Jason Bishop for the Texas Boys Choir.
