Texas

There wouldn’t be no Alamo
No Cowboys in the Superbowl
No «Lonesome Dove», no «Yellow Rose»
If it wasn’t for Texas
I wouldn’t be a Willie fan
Nobody’d swim the Rio Grande
I wouldn’t be an American
If it wasn’t for Texas
Fort Worth would never cross my mind
And there’d be no Austin City limits sign
No Lonestar of any kind
If it wasn’t for Texas
I’d never have gone to Tennessee
To sing my songs an' chase my dreams
Only Heaven knows just where I’d be
If it wasn’t for Texas
Fort Worth would never cross my mind
And there’d be no Austin City limits sign
No Lonestar of any kind
If it wasn’t for Texas
It made me the man I am
Thank God for my old stomping' ground
I wouldn’t be standing right here, right now
If it wasn’t for Texas
If it wasn’t for Texas
If it wasn’t for Texas
