Born In Mississippi |
| I was born in Mississippi on the Gulf of Mexico |
| And I could hear the Gators a roar at night out on the old bayou |
| I remember Spanish Moss a hangin' from the cypress trees |
| And the smell of Honey Suckle on the Mississippi breeze |
| Thank you Mississippi for lovin' me |
| Thank you for givin' this country boy a place to dream |
| Thank you for old Cane Pole the fishin' hole |
| The grits and black eyed peas thank you Missippi for lovin' me |
| Then my family moved down to Texas when I was 12 years old |
| I took my first chew of plug tobacco and got hooked on rodeo |
| I rode my Buckskin pony where the old Red River flows |
| And my Texas pride still makes me cry when I remember the Alamo |
| Thank you Texas for loving me thank you for the country road the horny toads |
| The chile and pinto beans thank you Texas for lovin' me |
| Now I live up in Wyoming I love home out on the range |
| But every now and then my mind goes roamin' |
| Down those country roads through my boy hood days |
| And after all these years I’d just like to say |
| Thank you America for lovin' me |
| Thank you for givin' this country boy a place to dream |
| Thank you for the country roads the folks I’ve known |
| From sea to shinning sea thank you America |
| Thank you mom and dad for lovin' me |
