Lyrics

It’s really chilly in the spring, The state fair in the fall. Its cheering on our Aggies all year round’ when they play ball. It’s asking red or green. It’s downtown old Mesilla, Friday night la Posta, with friends and margiritas Its the Organ mountain that touch the painted sky No matter where I go, I know exactly where my heart is. It belongs forever in the city of three crosses You can find your reason, every season, to call it home. And the truth is I couldn’t be more proud to love Las Cruces The A up on that mountain. It’s the desert wind. Its the old high school rivalry and the sun news It’s festivals with wine, The history of the land, Its pecan trees and family along the Rio Grande It’s the sunset, that will make you never say, goodbye No matter where I go, I know exactly where my heart is. It belongs forever with the city of three crosses You find your reason, every season, to call it home. And the truth is, I couldn’t be more proud to love Las Cruces. You wanna see a place like nowhere else? Just come on down we’d love for you to see it for yourself No matter where I go, I know exactly where my heart is. It belongs forever with the city of three crosses You find your reason, every season to call it home. And the truth is, I couldn’t be more proud to love Las Cruces. Come on and see us in Las Cruces. I love Las Cruces.
