    Looking specifically for songs mostly about Texas. Minor references don't count (ie. Thunderstruck, etc.)

    Here's my all time favorite, but I'd love to see & hear others.

    I love minor references.

    Eli Young Band - Always the Love Songs, when they start the song out saying "We used to pull off highway 249..". Especially since I grew up off that highway.

    Blue October- The Worry List, when he says, "I'm headed back home, headed back to Texas." (I know a lot of people don't like them...)


    Restless Heart - Blueest Eyes in Texas


    And my all time, hands down favorite,
    Little Texas - God Blessed Texas

    NSFW but so so good. A relic of the 1980's Houston punk scene.

    Brian Burns did a fantastic Texas version of a Johnny Cash song.
