Blame It On Texas - Mark Chesnutt

Been havin' a ball since I was a boy in Beaumont

Love that town, but I just couldn’t stay

Two stepped all the way to Amarillo

Shuffled my way into Santa Fe

Just had to see the sun set out in Frisco

The Golden Gate is great, but it ain’t home

Give me a rodeo

Blame it on Texas, don’t blame it on me

I am who I am and that’s what I’m gonna be

You can say what you wanna say about my insanity

Blame it on Texas, don’t blame it on me

Met a girl out in eastern Oklahoma

Her daddy was a Tulsa millionaire

With miles and miles of oil wells, he’d leave her

All a man could want was waitin' there

But one night while she lay sleepin' I slipped away

Like no man in his right mind would do

Call me a fool

Blame it on Texas, don’t blame it on me

I am who I am and that’s what I’m gonna be

You can say what you wanna say about my insanity

Blame it on Texas, don’t blame it on me
