JOHNNY LEE
"Never Been To Texas"
(Jerry Lane / Tony Raymee / Roger Springer)

Saw a man on the TV
He was out in California
Talking about where we all came from
He said the reason we're all here is purely accidental
He said it's all based on evolution
I took a drink of coffee walked out on my back porch
I looked up in heaven then I looked at my old horse
And I thought

[Chorus:]
He ain't never seen a sunset out west
Cactus or a paintbrush bloom in the springtime
He ain't never heard a coyote crying
Or a young colt take off running for the first time
Well I've thought a lot about it
Sometimes we overthink it
But the only thing that makes any sense
If you don't believe in God you ain't never been to Texas

I wish all those non-believers would cross that old red river
Lord it would surely open up their eyes
When I wake up every morning and I wake up in heaven
It ain't hard to realize
If there's anybody out there still tryna figure out
Bout where we all came from or what life is all about
I'd like to tell you

[Chorus:]
You ain't never seen a sunset out west
Cactus or a paintbrush bloom in the springtime
You ain't never heard a coyote crying
Or a young colt take off running for the first time
Well I've thought a lot about it
Sometimes we overthink it
But the only thing that makes any sense
If you don't believe in God you ain't never been to Texas
No
If you don't believe in God you ain't never been to Texas
