Don't Sell Texas Short
Don't sell Texas short,
There's some lovely people in Dallas.
They're the gentle ones,
They don't carry guns,
And they don't give a damn for Wallace,
So don't sell Texas short.
Don't sell Texas short,
There's some lively students in Austin
They're strong for peace
And for Huey's release
And they're more progressive than Boston
So don't sell Texas short.
Don't sell Texas short,
There's some good progressives in Houston
When they face it there
You know they care
And a Texas liberal's a good one,
So don't sell Texas short.
Don't sell Texas short,
Cause the Southwest has started risin'
Whatever they do,
They follow through,
And you might find them quite surprisin'
So don't sell Texas short.

No llevan armas,
Y no les importa un comino Wallace,
Así que no subestimes a Texas.

Y por la liberación de Huey,
Y son más progresistas que Boston,
Así que no subestimes a Texas.

Sabes que les importa,
Y un liberal de Texas es bueno,
Así que no subestimes a Texas.

Porque el suroeste ha comenzado a levantarse.
Sea lo que sea que hagan,
Lo llevan a cabo,
Y podrías encontrarlos bastante sorprendentes,
Así que no subestimes a Texas.
