The New York City folks say I'm too country the Grinny Village hippies call me square
|
But at the Long Horn barroom down in Dallas Texas
|
They call me the Texas Troubadour there
|
My home state of Texas you've been good to me your wide open spaces treat me fair
|
The girls are so much prettier down in Texas
|
They don't breathe that New York City polluted air
|
[ steel ]
|
The New York City sidewalks filled with people too busy to say hello to you there
|
With hearts as cold as the concrete that they walk on
|
They sure could use some clean fresh Texas air
|
Now Texas folks don't judge you till they know you
|
And they don't judge you then by what you wear
|
And you can feel at home anyplace in Texas
|
If you don't own a thing or if you're a millionaire
|
Now my home state of Texas...
