Heart Of Texas
Verse 1:
The heart of Texas is where i was born
By twist of fate the lonestar state's where i'm coming from God almighty's been good to me
Verse 2:
Where i grow'd up learning about the Alamo
With a swelling pride down deep inside me saying go man go
You can be all you want to be
Yeah it's right there where the best is
Smack dab in the heart of Texas,thank you Mam
Verse 3:
Papa run off before i was born
Mama picked cotton just to raise us kids in the Texas sun
We grew up in the cotton fields
Verse 4:(Waylon,Billy Joe)
So i learned how to work and i learned how to fight
I learned how to put a bunch of words together as the years rolled by
God gave me a way to go
Verse 5:(Waylon,Billy Joe)

When my sweetheart listened to the songs i played
She said i love you honey,but there ain't much money in a serenade
I need a man with a real job
Bridge:(Waylon,Billy Joe)
Now she's back there where i left her
God knows i still think about her now and then
But she knows these clothes i'm wearin'
Is the kind that shirt tails always flappin' in the wind
Verse 6:
I made my music from coast to coast
Been over the water,couldn't get no hotter then i dang near froze
Remember the Alamo
Verse 7:
The road was long but the heart is strong
I was Texas born and raised and Texas is still my home
Texas is home sweet home
Bridge2:(Billy Joe,Waylon)
Where my songs are always playing
And them good ol' Texas gals say honey 'now where ya been?'
