Lyrics

West Texas is the best Texas
From the Panhandle to the Trans-Pecos
From the Llano Estacado all the way down to Big Bend
There’s something in the dust out here
There’s something in the wind
Not like Dallas, Texas, more like crystal palace Texas
All the lawyers and the housewives drive around in a Lexus
They're fighting over money, fighting over custody
Fighting traffic on the freeway
No, that don’t sound free to me
It sounds like
Austin Texas which is lost in Texas
Californians coming in like it is going out of style
With their vegan diets and their self-driving cars
I like my peace and quiet and my sky full of stars
Out in
West Texas is the best Texas
From the Panhandle to the Trans-Pecos
From the Llano Estacado all the way down to Big Bend
There’s something in the dust out there
There’s something in the wind
Now east Texas ain’t the least Texas
But it’s too far east to be West Texas
You can’t see no sunrise for them piney wood trees
You can’t see no sunsets either, so it’s no thank you please
Just like
Houston, Texas well it used to be Texas
But it’s just a big ‘ol spur on the boot of Louisiana
Seven million people breathing in that salty air
It’s too damn hot, too damn humid, too damn crowded there
Don’t get us wrong it’s just a song
Don’t take it to heart
We love all of Texas, but our favorite part is out in
West Texas
Don’t get us wrong it’s just a song
Don’t take it to heart
We love all of Texas, but our favorite part is out in
West Texas is the best Texas
From the Panhandle to the Trans-Pecos
From the Llano Estacado all the way down to Big Bend
There’s something in the dust out here
There’s something in the wind
Out in
West Texas
Best Texas
