Too Bad This Town Ain't in Texas

I’m goin’ out tonight with some girls I know
To raise a little hell out where we always go
Everyone was born and raised up here ‘cept me
But since I hit this town they treat me just like family
Now the guys around here they’re as handsome as they come
But I really miss the way they two-step where I’m from
They ask me if I’ll settle down around here some day
Every time they do I just have to smile and say

Too bad this town ain’t in Texas
They did just about everything else right
They could use an oil rig or two
The sky could be bigger, too
And they could use a couple billion more stars at night
My mind wanders down on the Pedernales
The Rio Grande flows on through my dreams
I think about stayin’ here, but my heart says loud and clear
Too bad this town ain’t in Texas

No matter how they make me feel at home sweet home
I always end up singin’ Rose of San Anton’
Like is not to love your home the way I do.
So this is what I say every time I visit you
