You say you're not from texas Man as if I couldn't tell You think you pull your boots on right And wear your hat so well
So pardon me my laughter 'cause I sure do understand Even moses got excited When he saw the promised land
That's right you're not from texas That's right you're not from texas That's right you're not from texas But texas wants you anyway
That's right you're not from texas That's right you're not from texas That's right you're not from texas But texas wants you anyway
See I was born and raised in texas And it means so much to me Though my girl comes from down in georgia We were up in tennessee
And as we were driving down the highway She asked me baby what's so great How come you're always going on About your lone star state
I said that's right you're not from texas That's right you're not from texas That's right you're not from texas But texas wants you anyway
That's right you're not from texas That's right you're not from texas That's right you're not from texas But texas wants you anyway
Oh the road it looked so lovely As she stood there on the side And she grew smaller in my mirror As I watched her wave goodbye
Those boys from carolina They sure enough could sing But when they came on down to texas We all showed them how to swing
[That's Right lyrics on http://www.metrolyrics.com]Now david's on the radio And old champ's still on the guitar And uncle walt he's home with heidi Hiding in her loving arms
That's right you're not from texas That's right you're not from texas That's right you're not from texas But texas wants you anyway
That's right you're not from texas That's right you're not from texas That's right you're not from texas But texas wants you anyway
They're ok in oklahoma Up in arkansas they're fair But those old folks in missouri They don't even know you're there
But at a dance hall down in texas That's the finest place to be The women they all look beautiful And their men will buy your beer for free
And they'll say that's right you're not from texas That's right you're not from texas That's right you're not from texas But texas wants you anyway
That's right you're not from texas That's right you're not from texas That's right you're not from texas But texas wants you anyway
So won't you let me help you mister Just pull your hat down the way I do And buy your pants just a little longer And next time somebody laughs at you
You just tell 'em you're not from texas That's right you're not from texas That's right you're not from texas But texas wants you anyway
That's right you're not from texas That's right you're not from texas That's right you're not from texas But texas wants you anyway
