Texas
Steven Dale Jones/Phillip White
There wouldn't be no Alamo
No Cowboys in the Super Bowl
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
Chorus:
Fort Worth would never cross my mind
There'd be no Austin city limit sign
No lone star of any kind
If it wasn't for Texas
I'd never gone to Tennessee
To sing my songs and chase my dreams
Only heaven knows just where I'd be
If it wasn't for Texas
Repeat Chorus
It made me the man I am
Thank God for my old stompin' ground
I wouldn't be standin' right here right now
If it wasn't for Texas
If it wasn't for Texas
If it wasn't for Texas
