Danny Derden Poet Rhyme

Texas Proud

In Texas we have our heroes,
And of them we’re mighty proud—
There’s the Alamo in San Antone,
Where our cannons spoke out loud.

We’re proud to be called Texans,
We’re proud to be called free;
We’re the best state in the Union—
On that we all agree.

Texas is the Lone Star State,
Together we shall stand,
For it’s the folks of Texas
That make this state so grand.

Now we don’t go lookin’ for trouble,
Or talk a lot of jive—
Just living large in Texas,
Free and so alive.

Not claimin’ to be perfect—
Well… maybe just a bit.
Sure, we’ve made mistakes,
But we’re fixin’ all that .

And Texas still has manners,
We hold our morals high.
We love a good tall tale—
But won’t abide a lie.

So come on down to Texas,
Sit and stay a spell.
But cross us or betray us?
We’ll send you straight to hell.
