For you I'd give up all my time Searching for the perfect rhyme And this is one that certainly perplexes For you I would spend all my days Thinkin up all the crazy ways I love you even more than I love Texas You got Bellaire class and Dallas style Austin soul and a Luckenbach smile For you I'd trade my truck in for a Lexus You smell as sweet as the piney woods I'd marry you if I thought I could I love you even more than I love Texas You're the barb on my wire The spark in my campfire There's no brighter star in all the multiplexes I love this state, you know I do But the best thing in this state is you I love you even more than I love Texas Your wit's as sharp as a prickly pear The sun shines in your golden hair Your smile hits me right in the solar plexus Skin as soft as early morning rain Temper like a gulf coast hurricane I love you even more than I love Texas From the Mucky Duck to the Broken Spoke You know this state like an old cowpoke You know where all the tastiest Tex-Mex is You got Mattson on the radio Playing Robert Earl and Billy Joe I love you even more than I love Texas You're the barb on my wire The spark in my campfire Let's head out west where nobody can text us I promise you I'll never cheat Or you can throw me out in the old mesquite I love you even more than I love Texas And if you make me leave this state I'll groan but I won't hesitate 'Cause I love you even more than I love Texas
