You guys know where I'm from now, don't you?
When I die, I may not go to heaven
When I don't know if they let cowboys in
And if they don't just let me go to Texas
'Cause Texas is as close as I've been
When New York couldn't hold my attention
Detroit City couldn't sing my song
If, tomorrow finds me busted flat in Dallas
Well, I won't care, 'cause at least I'll know I'm home
When I die, I may not go to heaven
Well, I don't know if they let cowboys in
And if they don't just let me go to Texas, boys
'Cause Texas is as close as I've been
Little Andy on the lead guitar
Just graduated eighth grade
ย
Here's Jefferson on the keys
Jefferson's been with me probably the longest, all the boys got a group together
ย
Here's my Canadian boy, Mister Brian Three, back on the acoustic
He plays a little banjo and the mandolin every now and then
ย
Here's Jake on the fiddle
Ugh, here's Dino on the bass guitar
And not just any bass, the five-string bass
ย
Here's Mike on the drums
ย
I love the little boys in the band y'all
ย
I'd ride through all of Hell and half of Texas
Just to hear Midland sing a country song
Well, the beer just ain't as cold in old Milwaukee
My body's here, and my soul's in San Antone
When I die, I may not go to heaven
Well, I don't know if they let cowboys in
If they don't just let me go to Texas, boys
'Cause Texas is as close as I've been
How 'bout you help us out here
When I die, I may not go to heaven
Well, I don't know if they let cowboys in
If they don't just let me go to Texas, y'all
'Cause Texas is as close as I've been
When I die, well, I may not go to heaven
Well, I don't know if they'll let my cowboys in
If they don't just let me go to Texas
'Cause Texas is as close as I've been
Where?
Yo, L.A. is as close as we've been
