i like texas

well from dalhart to del rio

and out el paso way

i've been doin' fine on houston time

when the sun sets on the copano bay

from way up where the red river flows

on down to the rio grand

i was born a little native texan kid

and i'm proud to say that i am

yeah well i like texas

ain't it fine here

i like to pick my guitar down at ol gruene hall

and drink that miller lite beer

yeah well i like texas

man there ain't no doubt

just listen to me cause i know what i'm talkin about

well theres old dancehalls and little cafe's

where you can get a taste of the lone star state

you can strap on boots and have yourself a laugh or two

well theres no line dancing just straight romancing

that hill country love is what i fancy

the streams running clear and the skies they are so blue

yeah well i like texas

ain't it fine here

i like to pick my guitar down at ol gruene hall

and drink that miller lite beer

yeah well i like texas

man there ain't no doubt

just listen to me cause i know what i'm talkin about

well it's a two day old burrito

one lukewarm beer to go

on the sunday side of a roadtrip weekend

lordy i was feeling so low

when somebody flipped on the jukebox

and i heard ol bob wills say

stay all night
