Mamma raised a Christian boy
Children of the Son
Daddy was a son of a b***h
And I'm a hard hittin' son of a gun

          F         C                 D 
What the hell am I doing down in Kansas City,
F             C              D 
I know damn well it ain't where I belong,
F              C               D
think I'll quit my job come 5 o'clock,
  C         G          D 
find my lonely way back home,
F                C                      D 
My baby said just what are you trying to prove here, 
F                      C           D
do you really want to leave me here alone,
          F             C           D 
I said I'm staring at this ocean full of Yankees, 
C                   G        D
and I'd rather be in Texas on my own.

Chorus
             A     G           D 
So we were southbound 35, we were headed down the road,
          A          G      F         C      D 
hit the border by the morning, let Texas fill my soul,
          F   C      D 
yeah let Texas fill my soul.

The tears start to flow about the time that I was leaving, 
she said I guess you better take me along, 
God might have made me born a Yankee, 
but it's time that I made Texas my home, 
So we loaded her stuff into my pickup, 
said good-bye to all my friends, 
called my brother down in Austin, 
said I'm headed home again.

Chorus
A 
She had her feet up on the dashboard,
A 
she was holding my hand and wearing only a smile,
A 
she said it's gonna be hard to start all over,
         C                G                D
but the feeling I have will make it all worth while.

Chorus
