I was at an open mic a couple weeks ago and a young man asked me if I was born in Texas. I said that I wasn't but that I got here as fast as I could. He replied that it sounded like a song I should write. Without further adieu and for what it's worth, I present to you "Born In Texas".  Clearly...I will maintain my day job.  :-)

Born and raised in Michigan.  Left the north as soon as I was out of school and have never had any desire to ever live there again.  I know some folks like it, I'm just not one of them.  I've been saying sir, ma'am, and y'all while holding the door for a lady and getting my wife's car door for the last 30 years.  Recovery from being born a Yankee is possible...you just have to want it.  :-) 4951

Washington, Alabama, and two in Arkansas.The Arkansas kids were 4 years old and 5 months old when we moved to Kingwood.  Texas is all the know.  That has to count for something, right?!? 4951

I like your song and voice!  Where did you tape this with the water in the background?  Is that Lake Houston? 4951

@calliecat: Thanks.I just recorded it in my home office on my laptop earlier today.  Nothing fancy and actually not even plugged in or using an external mic.
The picture was taken last August at a friend's bay house on Tiki Island. 4951
