Under The X In Texas

I’m sitting with a map laid out on my lap

Now there’s not too many places that I ain’t been

But the one place I love best is spread all over the west

And I’m trying to figure how to get back home again

I wish I was sitting right under the X in Texas

Right in the heart of where my heart must be

But where I roam I never feel at home except in Texas

Under the X in Texas is the only place for me

Now I don’t know what I miss the most

The hills out west or the southern coast

Or being where a man can see for miles and miles

Those east Texas rivers with tall pine trees

Or the great state plains with prairie breeze

But baby I’m lonesome to see a Texas smile

I wish I was sitting right under the X in Texas

Right in the heart of where my heart must be

But where I roam I never feel at home except in Texas

Under the X in Texas is the only place for me

Now I ain´t got nothing against the rest

But why settle for less when you know what´s best

Under the X in Texas is the only place for me
