Yee-haw (ooh-ooh)

Texas, Texas, (ooh-ooh) Texas

Came into this world

Daddy's little girl

And daddy made a soldier out of me (ooh-ooh)

Daddy made me dance

And daddy held my hand (ooh-ooh)

And daddy liked his whiskey with his tea

And we rode motorcycles

Blackjack, classic vinyl

Tough girl is what I had to be

He said, "Take care of your mother

Watch out for your sister"

And oh, that's when he gave to me

With his gun, with his head held high

He told me not to cry

Oh, my daddy said shoot

Oh, my daddy said shoot

With his right hand on his rifle

He swore it on the bible

My daddy said shoot

Oh, my daddy said shoot

He held in his arms

And he taught me to be strong

He told me when he's gone

"Here's what you do

When trouble comes in town

And men like me come around"

Oh, my daddy said shoot

Oh, my daddy said shoot

Ooh-ooh

(Yee, woo) ooh-ooh (yee-haw) woo

Daddy made me fight

It wasn't always right

But he said. "Girl, it's your Second Amendment" (ooh-ooh)

He always played it cool

But daddy was no fool

And right before he died he said remember

He said, "Take care of your mother

Watch out for your sister"

That's when daddy looked at me

With his gun, with his head held high

He told me not to cry

Oh, my daddy said shoot

Oh, my daddy said shoot

With his right hand on his rifle

He swore it on the bible

My daddy said shoot (yee)

Oh, my daddy said shoot (yee-haw)

'Cause he held in his arms

And he taught me to be strong

And he told me when he's gone

"Here's what you do

When trouble comes to town

And men like me come around"

Oh, my daddy said shoot

Oh, my daddy said shoot (woo)

Ooh-ooh (woo)

Ooh-ooh (woo)

Ooh-ooh (yee)

Ooh-ooh (yee-haw)

My daddy warned me about men like you

He said, "Baby girl, he's playing you

He's playing you"

My daddy warned me about men like you

He said, "Baby girl, he's playing you

He's playing you

'Cause when trouble comes in town

And men like me come around"

Oh, my daddy said shoot (yee)

Oh, my daddy said shoot (yee-haw)

"'Cause when trouble comes to town

And men like me come around"

Oh, my daddy said shoot

Oh, my daddy said shoot

(Good job Bey)
