There wouldnt be no Alamo
No Cowboys in the Super Bowl
No Lonesome Dove, no yellow rose

If it wasnt for Texas

I wouldnt be a Willie fan

Nobodyd swim the Rio Grande
I wouldnt be an American
If it wasnt for Texas


Chorus:
Fort Worth would never cross my mind

Therd be no Austin city limit sign
No lone star of any kind
If it wasnt for Texas


Id never gone to Tennessee
To sing my songs and chase my dreams

Only heaven knows just where Id be
If it wasnt for Texas


Repeat Chorus

It made me the man I am

Thank God for my old stompin ground
I wouldnt be standin right here right now
If it wasnt for Texas

If it wasnt for Texas
If it wasnt for Texas
