Cody Johnson - What's Left Of Texas? lyrics

rate me

There's a Walmart Supercenter in the field where I use to bale my daddys hay

Where we used to ride our horses

Now sits a brand new cafe

The ole' house where my grand-dad was born

Was torn down in 1973

Their makin' off with everytyhing that's left

So what's left of Texas for me

(Chorus)

There takin' God's name out of the schools

And Robert Earl Keen right off the radio

Their takin' John Wayne out of Hollywood

Replaced him with some broke-back picture show

Ole' Waylon would sure be mad as hell if he knew they cuffed ole' Willie for smokin' weed

Their makin' off with everything that's left

So what's left of Texas for me

There used to be this ole' honky tonk

Right down there beside that ole' town square

That's where I had my first dance

As I ran my fingers through her auburn hair

It was torn down to build a dealership

Of some foreign car nobody'd ever seen

Their makin' off with everything that's left So what's left of Texas for me

(Chorus)

There takin' God's name out of the schools

And Robert Earl Keen right off the radio

Their takin' John Wayne out of Hollywood

Replaced him with some broke-back picture show

Ole' Waylon would sure be mad as hell if he knew they cuffed ole' Willie for smokin' weed

Their makin' off with everything that's left

So what's left of Texas for me

There takin' God's name out of the schools

And Gary P. Nunn right off the radio

Their takin' John Wayne out of Hollywood

Replaced him with some broke-back picture show

Ole' Waylon would sure be mad as hell if he knew they cuffed ole' Willie for smokin' weed

Their makin' off with everything that's left

So what's left of Texas for me

Yeah, their makin' off with everything that's left

So what's left of Texas for me
