Down in Texas Lyrics

Jerry Jeff Walker

Yeah down in Texas we got our own style
We say we're fixin' to in a country mile
Ten gallon hats and store-bought cowboy boots
We say "Howdy y'all", they go "Howdy doo"
We're laid back crazy 'cause it's understood
When you live down in Texas, life is good, life is good
Yeah, life is good

Yeah, down in Texas, we know wrong from right
Work out all day and party all night
We say "Yes sir" and "Thank you ma'am"
If you don't like that we don't give a damn
We do things the way we think we should
'Cause we live down in Texas where life is good, life is good
This life is good, yeah, life is good

And every man in the whole wide world
He falls in love with pretty Texas girls
I found everything is good
Women round the world love their cowboys too

Hey down in Texas we say no complaints
Just thank the Lord for the pouring rain
Cloudy skies and bright old sunny days
We say we like it here either way
We wouldn't change things even if we could
Cause every day in Texas, life is good,
Cause life is good, yeah, life is good

Yeah life is good
Yeah life is good

Life is good, life is good, life is good
