The eyes of the Ranger are upon you.
Anything you do, he's gonna see. Whenever you're in Texas, look behind you...

'Cause that's where the Ranger's gonna be.

1. I have a dumb question
Did "The Eyes of Texas" come first, or the song "I've been working on the railroad"? Every team I hear the first during a football game it makes me think of the second.

2. I looked it up just now.
"The Eyes of Texas" was written in 1903, and based on the tune of "I've Been Working On The Railroad."

So, "I've Been Working On The Railroad" came first.

And the rooster came before the hen... Typical.
