Back home [Gm] where I'm from, I don't know if it's [D] the same in South Carolina or [Eb] not, but in Texas we're incredibly proud of ourselves.
[G] Whether we've done anything to deserve it or [Gm] not, it's irrelevant.
We just [Ab] are [Gm] extremely proud of ourselves.
And I think it's fascinating sociologically because it's just a border, an imaginary [Gb] border that was just arbitrarily [A] drawn.
[Bb] Born inside that for some reason we feel like we're special.
And I notice that as you go [N] further north, like right about the time you get to Texarkana, creeping into Arkansas, [G] that that feeling of pride and self-worth starts to wane a little bit.
People don't seem as [Gm] excited about life or what's happening to them.
They look at the ground more and they're good people.
There's no reason they should feel that way about themselves.
But they don't even sell premium gasoline in Arkansas.
[Bb] They don't feel like they [N] deserve it.
And it just hurts my heart.
They're just like us.
They're people just like us.
So what I'm trying to [Ab] do, my cause, is to raise the [Bb] self-esteem of the beautiful state of [Gb] Arkansas.
That's what I'm [A] [D] working towards.
And the way that you can help [G] out tonight is that for every CD that you buy here [N] tonight, I am personally going to contribute $5 worth of Arkansas bar worth in the next six months.
It's my vow to you.
