Driving down highway eighty,
There was something hard to miss:
Just one star in the sky, shining down on me.
At the end of the line, I saw a big old sign,
politely reminding me:
In the land of the free, from sea to shining sea,
Everything's bigger in Texas.
Everything's bigger in Texas.
Everything's bigger in Texas...
From the sound of my guitar,
to the smiles that I meet, to the stomp of the feet,
to the rhythm for company, to the hospitality…
Yeah, I stayed around 'til breakfast,
and in my dreams I made that day,
I had my independence day.
Because everything's bigger in Texas.
Everything's bigger in Texas.
Everything's bigger in Texas.
Although I was just passing through,
I roamed on by the country;
The sky was turquoise blue,
A warm haze rose to the heavens;
And I saw the sunset on the prairie;
And it was something real tremendous,
Because everything's bigger in Texas.
Yeah, everything's bigger in Texas.
Everything's bigger in Texas.
Everything's bigger in Texas.
Everything's bigger in Texas.
