Texas

Some Day I'll Buy Us Texas

Some day I'll buy us Texas, don't you think I should?
Some day I'll buy us Texas, and won't that feel so good?

It's been a piece since I 'been there
Heck, I could barely walk
I ate a jalapeno once
That's when I learned to talk
Mama rustled cattle then
Papa sold work shoes
I cut my teeth in a bronco ring
I were'nt even two
But now I got a hankerin'
To get myself back South
I'm buy that hunk 'o real estate
And set free all them cows

I know it's big an' gets real hot
And they got floods an' things
An' lots 'o stinky oil wells
An' big ol' bees that stings
But we could turn that whole place 'round
Make a paradise
Bottle some o' that hot air
Re-name it once er twice
An' I know it'd cost a buck or two
An' a mighty clever con
An' some folks wouldn't take t' us
But by then we'd be gone
