I been having a ball since I was a boy in Beaumont
I love that town but I just couldn't stay
Two-stepped all the way to Amarillo
Shuffled my way into Santa Fe
I just had to see she sunset out in Frisco
The golden gate is great, but it ain't home
Give me a Rodeo
Blame it on Texas don't blame it on me
I am what I am, and That's what I'm gonna be
You can say what you wanna say, 'bout my insanity
Blame it on Texas, don't blame it on me
Met a girl out in eastern Oklahoma, Her daddy was a Tulsa millionaire
Miles and Miles of oil wells he'd leave her
All a man could want was waiting there
One night while she lay sleeping, I slipped away
Like no man in his right mind would do, call me a fool
Blame it on Texas don't blame it on me
I am what I am, and That's what I'm gonna be
You can say what you wanna say, 'bout my insanity
Blame it on Texas, don't blame it on me
You can say what you wanna say, 'bout my insanity
Blame it on Texas, Don't blame it on meBright lights big city went to my baby's head,

I tried to tell her mama, but she wouldn't hear what I said.
So long pretty baby, you're gonna need my help someday,
So long pretty baby, you're gonna need my help someday.
You're gonna wish you had listened to something that I had to say.
Go on, pretty baby, and knock yourself out,
Go ahead, pretty baby, you don't know what love is all about.
