Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Texas

Landlord/Tenant issue

I signed a lease a few months back. The landlord did not put the correct payment amount on the lease. I made payments according to the lease. Now they are telling me that I have to pay the amount plus late fees or be evicted. Even though I went by the lease and the error is on their part can they do that?
