Ray Wylie Hubbard - Screw You, We're From Texas lyrics

rate me

I got on my cowboy boots, jeans and Hawaiian shirt

Mirrored sunglasses and a mobile phone

I guess I look like some Port Aransas dope dealer who’s out on bail

Just trying to get home

But I ain’t in jail, and I got me a guitar and I got a little band that

hotter than a rocket

Sometimes we’re sloppy, we’re always loud

Tonight we’re just ornery and locked in the pocket

So screw you, we’re from Texas

Screw you, we’re from Texas

Screw you, we’re from Texas

We’re from Texas, baby, so screw you

Now I love the US and the other states, ahh they’re ok.

Texas is the place I want to be and I don’t care if I ever go to Delaware

anyway

Cuz we got studs and Green Hall and Antones and John T’s Country Store

We got Willie and Jackie and Jack, Robert Earle, Pat Core, Charlie and me

and so many more

So screw you, we’re from Texas

Screw you, we’re from Texas

Screw you, we’re from Texas

We’re from Texas, baby, so screw you

Sing it with me

So screw you, we’re from Texas

Screw you, we’re from Texas

Screw you, we’re from Texas

We’re from Texas, so screw you

Now Texas has gotten a bad reputation because of what happened in Dallas

and Waco

And our corporations they are corrupt, and the politicians are swindlers

and loco

But when it comes to music my friend I believe these words are as true as

St. John the Revelator’s

Our Mr. Vaughan was the best that there ever was and no band was cooler

than the 13th Floor Elevators

So screw you, we’re from Texas

Screw you, we’re from Texas

Screw you, we’re from Texas

We’re from Texas, screw you

Screw you, we’re from Texas

Screw you, we’re from Texas

Screw you, we’re from Texas

We’re from Texas, screw you

Screw you, we’re from Texas

Screw you, we’re from Texas

Screw you, we’re from Texas

We’re from Texas, screw you

We’re from Texas, screw you
