Mr. Billy Joe Shaver!

The heart of Texas where I was born,

Where I grew up I learned
about the Alamo
With a feeling of pride down
deep inside me

thank you ma 'am
Papa run off before I was born
Mama picked cotton just to raise us kids
C
In the Texas sun
G
D
G
We grew up in the cotton field
So we learned how to work
learned how to put a bunch
of words together
C
As the years rolled by
G
God gave me a way to go
And when my sweetheart
listened to the songs I played
She said I love you honey
C
But there ain't much money in the serenade
G
I need a man with a real job
D
Now she's back there where I left
C
God knows I still think about
G
her now and then
D
But she knows these clothes I'm wearing
C
Is the kind that sure tells
G
I'm always flapping in the wind
