Texas

[Verse 1]
There wouldn't be no Alamo
No Cowboys in the Superbowl
No "Lonesome Dove", no "Yellow Rose"
If it wasn't for Texas

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 3]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Outro]
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
