There wouldn't be no Alamo
No cowboys in the Superbowl
No Lonesome Dove
No yellow rose

I wouldn't be a Willy fan
Nobody would swim the Rio Grand
I wouldn't be an American
If it weren't for Texas

Fort Worth would never cross my mind
There'd be no Austin City Limit sign
No Lonestar of any kind
If it wasn't for Texas

I'd never gone to Tennesee to sing my songs and chase my dreams
Only heaven knows where'd I'd be
If it wasn't for Texas

Fort Worth would never cross my mind
There'd be no Austin City Limit sign
No Lonestar of any kind
If it wasn't for Texas

It made me the man I am
Thank god for my old stomping ground
I wouldn't be standing right here right now
If it wasn't for Texas
If it wasn't for Texas
