Oh yeah I grew up in Baytown so I know alittle about Texas
Stars on the Water was originally done by Rodney Crowell, and re-done a few years back by George Strait.

Don't forget The playboys classic "When you leave Amarillo, turn out the lights..."

Suprised no-one has mentioned Kevin Fowler.

That's what I was thinking. I used that title one day, I was at a roping and things did not work well my way so the group I was hanging with I told,"There was a song many years ago, it was called Happiness is Lubbock, Texas in the Rear View Mirror, I'm about to go test that."

I thought happiness
Was Lubbock, Texas
In my rear view mirror
My momma kept calling me home
But I just did not want to hear her
And the vision was getting clearer
In my dreams

Did we miss Ed Burleson or did somebody already get him on here. Great traditional sound, none of the rock and roll/pop rock generic shopping center radio country from him. I cant stand new country! Long Live Texas Singer/Songwriters!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
