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
Chorus
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 there's 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 there's 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
Chorus
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
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 Chorus 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 there's 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 there's 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 Chorus 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 Explain Request ×
