G

The heart of Texas is where i was born

C/G

By twist of fate the lonestar state's where i'm coming from

G

God almighty's been good to me

G

Where i grow'd up learning about the Alamo

C/G

With a swelling pride down deep inside me saying go man go

G

You can be all you want to be

G D

Yeah it's right there where the best is

C/G G

Smack dab in the heart of Texas,thank you Mam

G

Papa run off before i was born

C/G

Mama picked cotton just to raise us kids in the Texas sun

G

We grew up in the cotton fields

G

So i learned how to work and i learned how to fight

C/G

I learned how to put a bunch of words together as the years rolled by

G

God gave me a way to go

G

When my sweetheart listened to the songs i played

C/G

She said i love you honey,but there ain't much money in a serenade

G

I need a man with a real job

G D

Now she's back there where i left her

C/G G

God knows i still think about her now and then

D

But she knows these clothes i'm wearin'
