[Verse 1]
Yeah you can be up in Dallas
Up in Houston too
But nobody's ever down in Texas
Oh you could be up in Burnet
Where the blue bonnets bloom
But nobody's ever down in Texas

[Chorus]
There's miles and miles of smiles and smiles
From Bomarton to El Paso
Ask any Texas friend and then
He'll be glad to say so
You can be from it, of it, in it
But no matter how you spin it
Nobody's ever down in Texas

[Verse 2]
You can be up in Austin
Or up in San Anton'
Nobody's ever down in Texas
Folks up in the panhandle
Proudly call it home
Nobody's ever down in Texas

[Chorus]
There's miles and miles of smiles and smiles
From Bomarton to El Paso
Ask any Texas friend and then
He'll be glad to say so
You can be from it, of it, in it
But no matter how you spin it
Nobody's ever down in Texas
Nobody wears a frown in Texas
Nobody's ever down in Texas
