Let's start with cowboys and campfires, star lights and guitars.
Sleeping underneath that Texas sky.
Keep them doggies movin' on
From Santa Fe to San Antone. Living in the south until you die.
Move on to Sunday crowds and rodeos, stetson hats and fancy clothes.
Girls who love to dance all night long.
Bob Wills, Z.Z.Top and Jerry Jeff and Janis Joplin.
Hear that Lone Star soul in their song.

Say,

[chorus]
Come on down, we'd love to see ya, open arms are there to greet you.
Just remember-
There's a way that things are done ...
If you kill someone you're gonna fry,
On Willie's bus you're gettin high.
That's your lesson in Texas 101.

Well, the girls are pretty and th trucks are bigger.
Cause of oil, some folks got richer.
You can't drive across her in a day.
They got Tex-Mex food and senoritas, Bar-be-Q and margaritas.
Once you get a taste, you're gonna stay.

[chorus]
Come on down, we'd love to see ya, open arms are there to greet you.
Just remember-
There's a way that things are done ...
If you kill someone you're gonna fry,
On Willie's bus you're gettin high.
That's your lesson in Texas 101.

(Oh, Let's pick it boys).

They got George Bush and Dixie Chicks.
Guess oil and water just don't mix.
But, there's one thing on which they might agree...
If there were no Alamo,
Then Texas would be Mexico.
Where in the name Sam Houston would we be?

[chorus]
Come on down, we'd love to see ya, open arms are there to greet you.
Just remember-
There's a way that things are done ...
If you kill someone you're gonna fry,
On Willie's bus you're gettin high.
That's your lesson in Texas 101.

(awww, play it again , ya'll)

[chorus]
Come on down, we'd love to see ya, open arms are there to greet you.
Just remember-
There's a way that things are done ...
If you kill someone you're gonna fry,
On Willie's bus you're gettin high.
That's your lesson in Texas 101.

That's your
Lesson
In Texas - 101.
(oh yeah.
Awwww that's right).
