Texas. Tanya

 

When I die I may not go to heaven

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

New York couldn't hold my attention
Detroit City couldn't sing my song
If tomorrow finds me busted flat in Dallas
I won't care, 'cause at least I'll know I'm home

When I die I may not go to heaven
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

I'd ride through all of Hell and half of Texas
Just to hear Willie Nelson sing a country song
Beer just ain't as cold in old Milwaukee
My body's here, but 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

When I die, well, I may not go to heaven
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

When I die, well, I may not go to heaven, no
I don't know if they let cowboys in
If they don't just let me go to Texas
'Cause Texas is as close as I've been

When I die, well, I may not go to heaven, no
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

When I die well, I may not go to heaven, no
I don't know if they let cowboys in
If they don't just let me go to Texas
Texas is as close as I've been

When I die well, I may not go to heaven, no
I don't know if they let cowboys in
If they don't just let me go to Texas
'Cause Texas is as close as I've been

When I die well, I may not go to heaven
I don't know if they let cowboys in
If they don't just let me go

I'll be around

Imagine redoing this old number in your style. Think of the tremendous harmony possibilities.

Imagine redoing this old number in your style. Note the tremendous harmony possibilities.

 

2x:

All the way to Jackson

I don't think I'll miss you much

Once I get to Lafayette
I'm not gonna mind one bit
Once I get to Lafayette
I'm not gonna mind one little bit

Once I get to Baton Rouge
I'm not gonna cry for you
Once I get to Baton Rouge
I'm not gonna cry for you my

All the way to Jackson
I don't think I'll miss you much
All the way to Jackson
I don't think I'll miss you much

Bridg

Once I get to Vicksburg

I don't think I'll feel an urge
Once I get to Vicksburg
I won't even feel an urge

All the way to Jackson
I don't think I'll miss you much
All the way to Jackson
I don't think I'll miss you much

Outro

All the way to Jackson
I don't think I'll miss you much
