There wouldn't be no Alamo, No Cowboys in the Super Bowl No Lonesome Dove, no Yellow Rose If it wasn't for Texas I wouldn't be a Willie fan, No body swam the Rio Grand I wouldn't be an American, If it wasn't for Texas Ft. Worth would never cross my mind, There'd be no Austin City Limits sign No lone star of any kind, If it wasn't for Texas I'd never gone to Tennessee, To sing my songs and chase my dreams Only heaven knows just where I'd be, If it wasn't for Texas Repeat Chorus: Ft. Worth would never cross my mind, There'd be no Austin City Limits sign No lone star of any kind, If it wasn't for Texas It made me the man I am, Thank God for my ole' stomping ground Wouldn't be standing right here, right now If it wasn't for Texas, If it wasn't for Texas, If it wasn't for Texas
