It Wouldn't Beat Texas

I could leave here tonight
Book a one way ticket on a midnight flight
And get on up out of here
I could change my view and this whole dang'd atmosphere
I could jump in my truck
With the windows down and the Waylon cranked way up
I could ditch this town
Leave it all in the rear view mirror and put the hammer down
Yeah I might find me something to see
And I'd definitely probably like where I'd be

But it wouldn't beat Texas
It wouldn't beat dance halls and old dirt roads
It wouldn't beat Texas
It wouldn't beat fishing down on the Gulf Coast
There's a million places I could easily be tonight
Ahh but it wouldn't beat Texas

We could get out of Dodge
Hop in my Chevy and take it down to that river barge
And drift away
Take it on down South past Galveston Bay
Yeah we'd probably end up sailing the seas
And we'd definitely find us somewhere to be

But it wouldn't beat Texas
It wouldn't beat Luckenbach on Saturday nights
It wouldn't beat Texas
It wouldn't beat Buc-cee's and big blue skies
There's a million places we could easily be tonight
Ahh but it wouldn't beat Texas

We could jump that train
Ride til the prairie hit the mountain girl the view's insane
We could write a hit song
Make it a good one and have everybody sing along
Yeah we'd probably find us something to see
And we'd definitely probably love where we'd be

But it wouldn't beat Texas
It wouldn't beat The Stockyards and lakefront views
It wouldn't beat Texas
It wouldn't beat Lonestar red white and blue
There's a million places we could easily be tonight
Ahh but it wouldn't beat Texas
It just wouldn't beat Texas
Nah it wouldn't be Texas
There's just something bout Texas
