Heart Of Texas
Recorded by Billy Joe Shaver and Waylon Jennings
Written by Billy Joe Shaver

G
The heart of Texas is where I was born
C
By twist of fate the lone star state's where I'm coming from
G
God almighty's been good to me


Where I grow'd up learning about the Alamo
C
With a swelling pride down deep inside me saying go man go
G
You can be all you want to be

D7
Yeah it's right there where the best is
C G
Smack dab in the heart of Texas thank you Ma'am


Papa run off before I was born
C
Mama picked cotton just to raise us kids in the Texas sun
G
We grew up in the cotton fields


So I learned how to work and I learned how to fight
C
I learned how to put a bunch of words together as the years rolled by
G
God gave me a way to go


When my sweetheart listened to the songs I played
C
She said I love you honey but there ain't much money in a serenade
G
I need a man with a real job

D7
Now she's back there where I left her
C G
God knows I still think about her now and then
D7
But she knows these clothes I'm wearing
C G
Is the kind that shirt tails always flapping in the wind


I made my music from coast to coast
C
Been over the water couldn't get no hotter then I dang near froze
G
Remember the Alamo


The road was long but the heart is strong
C
I was Texas born and raised and Texas is still my home
G
Texas is home sweet home

D7
Yeah it's right there where the best is
C G
Smack dab in the heart of Texas thank you man
D7
Where my songs are always playing
C G
And them good ol’ Texas gals say honey where you been

D7
Yeah it's right back there where the best is
C G
Smack dab in the heart of Texas thank you man
