Texas Lyrics - Somewhere Down In Texas - George Strait

Written by Jones and White 

There wouldn't be no Alamo, 

No Cowboys in the Superbowl: 

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.

Fort Worth would never cross my mind, 

An' there'd be no Austin City limits sign. 

No Lonestar of any kind. 

If it wasn't for Texas. 

Instrumental break. 

I'd never've 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. 

Fort Worth would never cross my mind. 

There'd be no Austin City limits sign. 

An' no Lonestar of any kind. 

If it wasn't for Texas.

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.
