Lyle Lovett - That's Right lyrics
And you say you're not from Texas
 Man as if I couldn't tell
 Well 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, 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
Said I was, I was born and raised in Texas
 And it means so much to me
 And though my girl comes from down in Georgia
 We were, were up in, 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
 Well they sure enough could sing
 But when they came on down to Texas
 We all showed them how to swing
And now David's on the radio
 And old champs still on the guitar
 And uncle Walt he's a 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 TexasLyle Lovett - That's Right - http://motolyrics.com/lyle-lovett/thats-right-lyrics.html
 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 okay in Oklahoma
 Up in Arkansas they're fair
 But those old folks in Missouri
 And they don't even know you're there
But at a dance hall down in Texas
 And that's the finest place to be
 All the women they all look beautiful
 And the 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, won't you let me help you mister
 Just pull your hat down the way I do
 And buy your pants just a, 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
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
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
 Texas wants you anyway
