I Like Texas — текст песни (Pat Green)

by Pat Green
?1995 Dead Horse Music (BMI)

From Dalhart to Del Rio and out El Paso way, well I`ll be doin` fine on Houston time, and when the sun sets on the Copano Bay, well from way up where the Red River flows, on down to the Rio Grande, I was born a native Texican, and I`m proud to say that I am.

Chorus

Yeah I like Texas, Ain`t it fine here,
Like to pick my guitar down in Luckenbach, and drink that Shiner Bock beer,
Yeah 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, strap on your boots and have yourself a laugh or two, well there`s no line dancin` just straight romancin`, that hill country lore is what I fancy, where streams run clear and Lord the skies they are so blue.

Chorus

It`s a two day old burrito on a lukewarm beer to go, on the Sunday side of a road trip weekend, and Lordy I was feelin` so low, when somebody flipped on the jukebox, and I heard old Bob Wills say, "won`t cha` stay all night stay a little longer", so I held on another day.
