[length: 05:06]
[00:07.25]You say you’re not from Texas
[00:10.83]Man as if I couldn’t tell
[00:14.47]You think you pull your boots on right
[00:18.98]And wear your hat so well.
[00:22.65]So pardon me my laughter
[00:26.26]’Cause I sure do understand
[00:29.86]Even Moses got excited
[00:33.45]When he saw the promised land.
[00:37.96]That’s right you’re not from Texas
[00:39.72]That’s right you’re not from Texas
[00:42.49]That’s right you’re not from Texas
[00:43.33]But Texas wants you anyway.
[00:45.15]That’s right you’re not from Texas
[00:47.84]That’s right you’re not from Texas
[00:49.68]That’s right you’re not from Texas
[00:50.63]But Texas wants you anyway.
[00:52.42]See I was born and raised in Texas
[00:56.04]And it means so much to me
[00:59.60]Though my girl comes from down in Georgia
[01:04.18]We were up in Tennessee.
[01:07.77]And as we were driving down the highway
[01:11.32]She asked me baby what’s so great
[01:14.93]How come you’re always going on
[01:19.52]About your Lone Star State.
[01:23.11]I said that’s right you’re not from Texas
[01:25.89]That’s right you’re not from Texas
[01:27.61]That’s right you’re not from Texas
[01:29.43]But Texas wants you anyway.
[01:30.37]That’s right you’re not from Texas
[01:33.05]That’s right you’re not from Texas
[01:34.82]That’s right you’re not from Texas
[01:36.62]But Texas wants you anyway.
[01:38.48]Oh the road it looked so lovely
[01:42.09]As she stood there on the side
[01:45.70]And she grew smaller in my mirror
[01:49.63]As I watched her wave goodbye.
[01:53.98]
[02:08.46]Those boys from Carolina
[02:12.06]They sure enough could sing
[02:15.69]But when they came on down to Texas
[02:19.22]We all showed them how to swing.
[02:23.78]Now David’s on the radio
[02:27.48]And old Champ’s still on the guitar
[02:31.06]And Uncle Walt he’s home with Heidi
[02:34.63]Hiding in her loving arms.
[02:39.14]That’s right you’re not from Texas
[02:40.95]That’s right you’re not from Texas
[02:42.77]That’s right you’re not from Texas
[02:44.55]But Texas wants you anyway.
[02:46.39]That’s right you’re not from Texas
[02:48.18]That’s right you’re not from Texas
[02:50.63]That’s right you’re not from Texas
[02:52.46]But Texas wants you anyway.
[02:54.61]
[03:09.00]They’re OK in Oklahoma
[03:12.67]Up in Arkansas they’re fair
[03:16.38]But those old folks in Missouri
[03:19.91]They don’t even know you’re there.
[03:23.57]But at a dance hall down in Texas
[03:28.00]That’s the finest place to be
[03:31.65]The women they all look beautiful
[03:35.24]And their men will buy your beer for free.
[03:38.85]And they’ll say that’s right you’re not from Texas
[03:41.67]That’s right you’re not from Texas
[03:43.47]That’s right you’re not from Texas
[03:45.24]But Texas wants you anyway.
[03:47.07]That’s right you’re not from Texas
[03:48.87]That’s right you’re not from Texas
[03:50.68]That’s right you’re not from Texas
[03:52.43]But Texas wants you anyway.
[03:54.23]So won’t you let me help you Mister
[03:57.78]Just pull your hat down the way I do
[04:01.46]And buy your pants just a little longer
[04:05.92]And next time somebody laughs at you.
[04:09.57]You just tell ’em you’re not from Texas
[04:11.32]That’s right you’re not from Texas
[04:13.16]That’s right you’re not from Texas
[04:14.90]But Texas wants you anyway.
[04:16.77]That’s right you’re not from Texas
[04:18.53]That’s right you’re not from Texas
[04:20.36]That’s right you’re not from Texas
[04:23.16]But Texas wants you anyway…
