Well you ask me what I like about Texas
I tell you it's the wide open spaces!
It's everything between the Sabine and the Rio Grande
It's the Llano Estacado
It's the Brazos and the Colorado;
It's the spirit of all the people who share this land!
It's another burrito, it's a cold Lone Star in my hand
It's a quarter for the jukebox, boys
Play the sons of the mother-lovin' Bunkhouse Band!
You ask me what I like about Texas
It's the big timber round Nacogdoches
It's driving El Camino Real into San Antone
It's the Riverwalk and Mi Tierra
Jammin' out with Bongo Joe
It's stories of the Menger Hotel and the Alamo!
(You remember the Alamo!)
It's another burrito, it's a cold Lone Star in my hand!
It's a quarter for the jukebox, boys
Play the sons of the mother-lovin' Bunkhouse Band!
It's another burrito, it's a cold Lone Star in my hand!
It's a quarter for the jukebox, boys
Play the sons of the mother-lovin' Bunkhouse Band!
Well, you ask me what I like about Texas
It's Bluebonnets and Indian paint brushes
Swimming in the sacred waters of Barton Springs
It's body surfing at Frio
It's Saturday night in Del Rio!
It's crossing over the border for some cultural exchange!
It's another burrito, it's a cold Lone Star in my hand!
It's a quarter for the jukebox, boys
Play the sons of the mother-lovin' Bunkhouse Band!
Well, you ask me what I like about Texas
Well, I could tell you, but we'd be here all night long
