Content
The narrator tells that from his humble beginnings in Beaumont, Texas (Chesnutt's birthplace) he has traveled all around the country. He says it's great and all but he still prefers Texas. In the second verse, he describes hooking up with an Oklahoma oil heiress, then leaving her in the middle of the night because he missed home. In each chorus he tells the audience to blame his insanity on Texas, not him.
Critical reception
An uncredited review in Cashbox described the song as "destined to create a little toe-tappin' and finger-snappin' action" with "pure country vocals".[2]
