Screw You, We're From Texas Lyrics


I got on my cowboys boots, jeans and lawyer's shirt
Mirrored sunglasses and mobile phone
I guess I look like some Port Aransas dope dealer's
Out on bail just trying to get home.Well, I aint in jail and I got me a guitar
And I got a little band that's hotter than a rocket
Sometimes we're sloppy, we're always loud
Tonight were just all around locked in the pocket.So screw you, we're from Texas
Screw you, we're from Texas
Screw you, we're from Texas
We're from Texas baby, so screw you.Now I love the U.S.A. and the other states
Ah, now they're okay
Texas is the place I wanna be and I don't care
If I ever go to Delaware anyway.
'Cause we got Stubbs and Gruene Hall
And Antones and John T's Country Store
We got Willie, and Jackie, Jack, Robert Earl
Pat, Cory, Charlie and me, and so many more.So screw you, we're from Texas
Screw you, we're from Texas

Screw you, we're from Texas
Were from Texas, screw you.Sing it with me, screw you, we're from Texas
Screw you, we're from Texas
Screw you, we're from Texas
We're from Texas, screw you.Now Texas has gotten a bad reputation
Because of what happened in Dallas and Waco
And the corporations well, they are corrupt
And the politicians are swindlers and loco.
But when it comes to music my friend
I believe these words are as true as St. John the Revelators
Our Mr. Vaughn was the best that there ever was
And no band was cooler than the 13th Floor elevators.So screw you, we're from Texas
Screw you, we're from Texas
Screw you, we're from Texas
We're from Texas, screw you.Screw you, we're from Texas
Screw you, we're from Texas
Screw you, we're from Texas
We're from Texas, screw you.Screw you, we're from Texas
Screw you, we're from Texas
Screw you, we're from Texas
We're from Texas, screw you.We're from Texas, screw you...

Ray Wylie Hubbard (born 13 November 1946 in Soper, Oklahoma, moved to Dallas, Texas, USA in 1954) is an American country music singer and songwriter. An active performer since 1965, his song "Up Against the Wall, Redneck Mother" was made famous by Jerry Jeff Walker in 1973. He has recorded and performed continuously since then, apart from a short period in the late 1980s.

With a keen eye of observation and a wise man’s knowledge, Ray Wylie Hubbard composes and performs a dozen songs that couldn’t spring from anywhere else but out of his fertile rock and roll bluesy poet-in-the-blistering-heat southern noggin. ”I like to look at both enlightenment and endarkenment,” he declares. “I feel comfortable observing each.”

His 2010 album "A. Enlightenment B. Endarkenment" demonstrates the kind of talent that every great songwriter yearns for. Throughout the album, his focus remains on the song-constructing and performing stories set to music that resonate in a way that is completely his own. Hubbard recruits an ensemble of accomplished musicians to make the album’s larger than life outlaw tunes echo from track to track. Among the musicians featured on the album are Kevin Russell (The Gourds), Gurf Morlix (Lucinda Williams, Robert Earl Keen), Bukka Allen (Ian Moore, Jack Ingram), Billy Cassis (Bob Schneider,Double Trouble, Soulhat), Ray Bonneville (B.B. King, JJ Cale, Muddy Waters), Seth James (Percy Sledge, Delbert McClinton), David Abeyta (Reckless Kelly) and The Trishas as well as his own son, Lucas Hubbard.

The writing and recording of A. Enlightenment B. Endarkenment came on the heels of Hubbard’s first screenplay endeavor, which was funded and filmed with a cast of icons including Kris Kristofferson, Dwight Yoakam and Lizzy Caplan. A weekly radio show, constant touring, and producing kept him busy, but didn’t manage to steal the Texan singer-songwriters focus. The outcome of the album is a juxtaposition of songs like “Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse,” a fundamental gospel piece, and “Drunken Poet’s Dream,” cowritten with Hayes Carll. Read more on Last.fm.
