Screw You, We're From Texas
Screw You, We're From Texas: Anthem of Lone Star Spirit
Lyrics
I got some cowboy boots, jeans and Hawaiian shirt
I have cowboy boots, jeans, and a Hawaiian shirt.
I got some mirrored sunglasses, got an iphone
I have mirrored sunglasses and an iPhone.
I guess I look like some Port Aransas dope dealer who's out on bail just trying to get home
I might appear like a dope dealer from Port Aransas, but I'm not in jail; I have a guitar and a band.
But I ain't in jail and I got me a guitar
I'm not in jail, and I play the guitar.
Got a little band here that's hotter than a rocket
I have a band that's successful and popular.
Sometimes we're sloppy
Sometimes our performance is not perfect.
We're always loud, tonight we're just ornery and locked in the pocket
We're always loud, and tonight we're in a defiant and confident mood.
So screw you, we're from Texas
Expressing pride and defiance in being from Texas.
Screw you, we're from Texas
-Screw you, we're from Texas
-We're from Texas, screw you
-I love the USA and the other states,
Expressing love for the USA and other states but a strong preference for Texas.
they're okay
-But Texas is the place that I wanna be
-And I don’t care if I go to Delaware anyway
-We got Stubbs and Gruene Hall and Antone’s
List of iconic Texas venues and musicians.
and John T's Country Store
-We’ve got Willie and Jacky Jack, Robert Earl, Pat Cory, Charlie, Ray and so many more
-Screw you, we're from Texas
Reiteration of pride and defiance in being from Texas.
Screw you, we're from Texas
-Screw you, we're from Texas
-We're from Texas, screw you
-Screw you, we're from Texas
-Screw you, we're about Texas
-Screw you, we're from Texas
-We're from Texas, screw you!
-Now Texas has got a bad reputation for a while
Addressing Texas's mixed reputation due to historical events, sketchy corporations, and eccentric politicians.
Because of what happened a long time ago down in Waco
-And our corporations, some of them are a little sketchy
-And our politicians, most of them are loco
-But when it comes to music my friend, I can't believe these words
Despite Texas's flaws, it is praised for its musical contributions, especially Stevie Ray Vaughan.
Are as true as St. John the Revelator
-Yeah, Stevie Ray was the best guitar player I ever heard
-No band was cooler than the 13th Floor Elevators!
Highlighting the coolness of the 13th Floor Elevators band.
So screw you, we're from Texas
Reiteration of pride and defiance in being from Texas, emphasizing the state's musical legacy.
Screw you, we're from Texas
-Screw you, we're from Texas
-We're from Texas, screw you
-Screw you, we're from Texas
-Screw you, we're from Texas
-Screw you, we're from Texas
-We're from Texas, screw you
-Screw you, we're from Texas
-Screw you, we're from Texas
-Screw you, we're from Texas
-We're from Texas, screw you
-Screw you, screw you, screw you, screw you, screw you
