The New York City folks say I'm too country the Grinny Village hippies call me square
But at the Long Horn barroom down in Dallas Texas
They call me the Texas Troubadour there
My home state of Texas you've been good to me your wide open spaces treat me fair
The girls are so much prettier down in Texas
They don't breathe that New York City polluted air
[ steel ]
The New York City sidewalks filled with people too busy to say hello to you there
With hearts as cold as the concrete that they walk on
They sure could use some clean fresh Texas air
Now Texas folks don't judge you till they know you
And they don't judge you then by what you wear
And you can feel at home anyplace in Texas
If you don't own a thing or if you're a millionaire
Now my home state of Texas...
Ernest Dale Tubb (1914-1984) è stato un cantante e musicista statunitense considerato uno dei pionieri della musica country. Nato a Texas, Tubb ha iniziato la sua carriera musicale negli anni '30 suonando con diverse band di musica western. Nel 1937 ha registrato il suo primo singolo, "Walking the Floor Over You", che è diventato un successo immediato e lo ha consacrato come una delle figure più importanti del genere country. Tubb era noto per la sua voce potente e melodiosa, le sue canzoni malinconiche e i suoi testi evocativi che raccontavano storie di amore, perdita e vita quotidiana. Tra i suoi brani più famosi ricordiamo anche "Thanks a Lot", "I'm Sorry I Made You Cry" e "The Wild Side of Life". Tubb ha continuato a registrare e esibirsi per decenni, influenzando generazioni di musicisti country e contribuendo a definire lo stile musicale che caratterizza ancora oggi questo genere.
