Standing on a corner in Manhattan
I finally flagged a taxi down
And as I climbed into the back seat
I heard a most familiar sound
From the radio came gliding
The sliding Nashville pedal steel
And as the driver took me riding
His fingers danced upon the wheel
This country's bigger than Texas
It's bigger than Nashville, Tennessee
It reaches border to border
It stretches shining sea to sea
This country's got no boundaries
A rednecked farmer out of Macon
Met a lady lawyer from LA
They did not have a thing in common
Or at least it seemed that way
And then the jukebox started playing
Just your average country song
And both their bodies started swaying
They danced the two-step all night long
This country's bigger than Texas
It's bigger than Nashville, Tennessee
It reaches border to border
It stretches shining sea to sea
This country's got no boundaries
This country's bigger than Texas
It's bigger than Nashville, Tennessee
It reaches border to border
It stretches shining sea to sea
This country's got no boundaries
This country's got no boundaries
