You Can't Get The Hell Out Of Texas

Lyrics

On a highway deep within the heart of Texas
 I was just about as lost as I could be
 I was drivin' round in circles
 Tryin' to find the border
 But Texas was as far as I could see
 Hey!
 Well I stopped and flagged me down a State policeman
 I said my patience growin' mighty thin
 Can you help me get the hell out of Texas
 He just flashed me some ole lone star Texas grin
 And he said:
 You can't get the hell out of Texas
 No matter how hard you try
 Why in Texas we raise hell, son
 Just like you raise a crop
 It started with the Alamo
 And it aint gonna ever stop
 As long as there's a Houston and Austin,
 Amarillo, Lubbock, Dallas and Fort Worth
 Lord, you can't get the hell out of Texas
 'Cause it's the hell raisin' center of the earth
 Whoa late last night I fell in love with Texas
 I called my dear sweet mamma on the phone
 I said i've seen the light aint life a joy
 I'm a changed man, I'm a good ole boy
 Mamma, I aint never comin' home, uh-uh
 For as long as there's a Houston and Austin,
 Tyler, Beaumont, Dallas and Fort Worth
 Lord, you can't get the hell out of Texas
 'Cause it's the hell raisin' center of the earth
 I said you can't get the hell out of Texas
 'Cause it's the hell raisin' center of the earth
