What a blast from the past! This was unofficially our anthem of US drilling crews working on oil & gas rigs in the North Sea in the 80's. We usually drove the British crews crazy by us singing it pretty much non stop the last few days till crew change! And we could start a roughneck ruckus in the pubs singing it !
I wish Texans weren't such egomaniacs. ;) Bill, I've been all over the country and seen a whole mess of the world. Texas is great. But it's not as if the rest of the country is crap and we don't love the US. I'm tired of this attitude. Texas, it's just another state. The other 49 are pretty cool too.
Yes, sir - Agreed. Just saw Gary P perform at Gruene hall this past weekend and he gave many nods to his old buddy Jackie Jack. It was a soul cleansing show.
I gotta move to L.A. so you know I'm going to miss Texas. Then, God willing, we are retiring in London. I already miss Texas. I will always visit Texas as long as I can walk to get on a plane.
I love Texas, born in upstate new York but spent a lot of time in west Texas in the military , I want to go home with the armadillo, friendliest people and the prettiest woman I've ever seen.....
I just saw Gary P. Nunn last Saturday night in Hamilton, Texas(pop2800). Small venue but big music. Open air on the town square. He's now age 77 and kicking it harder than ever!
Gary P. Nunn and of course, JJ Walker,' Time has neither diminished nor tarnished this song. Pure Freaking Genius. Both of ya. Thank you for posting this song.
Texas expat here. I do not miss the endless sprawl of Houston and Dallas Ft. Worth, but I often go back to the Hill Country and the endless South Texas Beaches. When I miss Texas, I sing this song and Patsy Cline.
The greatest Texas cosmic cowboy song ever!!!!!!!! Gary P Nunn, Jerry Jeff , Lost gonzos, thats like Waylon, Willie , Asleep at the Wheel , Bob Wills and Ernest Tubb!!! now thats Texas style country..when country was ugly, not all GQ..lol
My lullaby... No joke, my dad would sing this all the time. Miss that man, but my baby girl is in London and she shared this song with her group. Proud moment.
Your great and i love your song but gee i really miss Mr JJW. Saw you guys in Melbourne roughly about 40 years ago., Really sad that Australia missed that concert in Melbourne . Only about 200 people there. Fuck me you guys were the most electric band i ever ever had the privilege to see. We may have been present BUT you guys were in your own world just played for your selves.. So into your zones . What a privalige it was to the 200 or so people present. In love wth JJW before we left the concert. Would have left my husband that night for him. Miss him and you guys so much.
Jerry Jeff Walker's music takes me back to Texas when my sister lived there. The dive bars were something to remember. I never did get the hang of the two-step, though.
I miss Texas SO much . People can say what they want , put us down and trash us - but I will always be proud that I grew up in Texas. Great memories that will never die..................
snottyxraygirl Fear not! You can always come home,every things the same(some transplants are weird)but mostly the same! We still don't take shi-! PS.From just about anyone!!
Have too many people lost the ability to have real fun and love of what their doing like musicians and music lovers getting off on the pleasure and fun of enjoying and doing what they love? Can’t hear this song without smiling , cheering, and wanting to join in ,
Thank you for lifting my spirits, both Mr. Nunn and Mr. Walker. Wife in hospital, not well. You made me feel better, but that's the power of music, n'est pas?
Pure Gonzo! Love ya Jerry Jeff and Gary P. We Texans really are unique. That's why people hate us. You don't like what you don't understand or you fear. God Bless from Baytown Texas
This is so true. I feel the same way. I was born here, am living & God willin' I'll die here. Did some travelin over the years,but there is no place on earth like ",Texas".
We ain't that bad in London, now, honest, heard this first in the 70s with Jerry Jeff Walker. And I would like to add the best holiday I ever had was New York then driving round the Deep South, greetings from London!
Came here because the wonderful Jerry Jeff Walker just passed away and I'm going through some of my favorites of his (including like here, where he didn't write the song). No, you're not that bad, in fact you live in a lovely country, and this is the most good-natured counter-needling they could've done. In the mid-70s the UK was more different from the US than it is now, and Texas was more different from much of the rest of the US than it is now. I lived in Oklahoma and had been in London and people were fascinated at someone from so "exotic" a location and the tone was "how can someone from such a primitive place even make it to here?" If you had thin skin it would have been annoying but we thought it was hysterical and occasionally put on an act (we'd learned to do that with New Yorkers). This song captured all of that and still pulls me back 45 years to my teenage years. Take care and stay safe!
I wanna go home with the armadillo to. I remember my dad used to play this song when i was little and now god rest his soul i play it today. i love you dad.
Saw JJ and the Lost Gonzo Band in a little bar in N. Hollywood. Not sure of the date, late '70's, early "80's. After closing time with power off, they went acoustic 'til the cops came. Invited remaining fans to their hotel bar. 'Bout 20 of us went and they played adlib for another couple hours. Blew me away. I lived in Hawaii, and there's the best of performances there, but nothing before or since, could compare to that night in Hollywood (that's where the hotel was)!
OMG... and so many times at the Armadillo in Austin and Luckenback too! And dance halls in Gruene and elsewhere in Central Texas in the early 70s! Them were the days...
I now play only in a jam band; yet a group with an agenda and set lists. I stumbled upon this masterpiece maybe a year ago. Is there really a better sing-along tune to close out a night than Gary P.’s? And this live version is a national treasure. So glad JJW invited Gary P. to do it.
Many Moons ago, roughly 25 hundred probably, while residing at the "Armadillo Farm" located a J away from lovely Luckenbach along 1376, I took an Irish Gal i met @ Luckenbach over to the Albert Ice House one beautiful evening. On our return to "The Farm" while loudly singin' along with this particular song spinnin' in my CD player, I accidentally hit & killed an Armadillo. It still haunts me. One day, I'll have a pet Armadillo named "Terry Allen" & he shall be treated like a King. I do not wanna hear that b.s. bout them carrying diseases. Oooo, that Irish gal woke up the next morning & said was her grandest Texas experience. She was crushed when I informed her I was an Ohio Boy. God Bless Jerry Jeff! "Hondo Still Cries"
We just got to Austin last night and this came up on my feed. lol. A few months ago when in Austin I ran into Jerry Jeff's son. Jerry Jeff had passed and both of us had some memories to share..... Thanks for the post.
Oh, such memories! The most fun we ever had in our lives was living in the Hill Country in the 1970s. Armadillo World Headquarters, Luckenbach, Floores' Country Store in Helotes....and the lovely, gorgeous Guadalupe River. This makes me homesick, too, and for a place that isn't there anymore.
Born and raised in the midwest, right out of school I moved to Oklahoma and then Texas. The friendliest people and the prettiest women? 100% true! I came back north almost 30 years ago and not a day goes by that I don't regret that move. And this damn song doesn't help matters either. I wanna go home too!
All I know we used to listen to Jerry up here in MN in the 70's. He gives us good memories. TX I am still pissed that you have our North Stars. Love the cowboys!
That's okay, it just shows there are much fewer of us that have taste and recognize talent. I've seen Jerry Jeff, Gary, Billy Joe Shaver, Delbert McClinton, etc etc....many many times in small personal venues with every seat filled by good people. If they were a huge arena type acts, I would have never have the memories I enjoy now. Some of life's greatest pleasures and treasures should be shared and enjoyed by a select few that understand and truly deserve it. You're blessed you are one of them
Grew up in same town as Gary. Got in a fight with his brother once. Saw Gary and Jerry play at Celebrity Theatre in Phoenix long ago. Gary is 3-4 yr older than me. RIP Jerry Jeff. RIP Steve Nunn.
Another piece of my musical youth has gone to Terlingua in the sky....I wore huge grooves in Viva Terlinga..............what a record ...what an icon Jerry Jeff was to the so called "outlaw country" music scene....and to all us younguns who got to get drunk and screw :) Via Con Dios Maestre
amen! to all! I'm here in Tennessee, wishing I was back in Texas! For the 10th year we went to Willie's July 4 picnic, and back to Luckenbach, say what you will, Luckenbach is magical! It restores my soul every time! Go to the true home of the Armadillo, visit the Texas Hill Country, you'll leave 10 years younger and your faith in humanity will be restored!
Gary P is a C&W genius. I saw him live in Austin at the Broken Spoke a couple of years ago and it was awesome. If you've ever spent a week or two in London in the winter time and are from Texas you can totally relate to this song. I spent a couple of weeks there around Christmas in 2004 and came to realize the true genius of this song! Why is Kid Rock making hit C&W songs while Gary P is relatively unknown? It's a sin.
The Amarillo was torn down and replace many years ago. Little by little Austin Texas is turning into a tiny L.A. But change is nothing new. Central Texas has been and will continue to evolve as time goes on. This song makes me homesick even in my hometown.

Growing up in the 70's, I always considered this song as a Texas national anthem...still do.
It's the theme song to Austin City Limts
Jerry has officially gone home with the armadillo.
Thanks for all the memories, Jerry.
Rest in peace, Mate.
He had a big waterfront home in Belize. They sold his CDs in kiosks,
How could anyone live anywhere but TEXAS? World's greatest musicians live in Texas, and so do I, for 31 years now. This song should be Texas' anthem.
Where have all cowboy singers songwriters gone? Thank God for RUclips for the memories of days gone by.
Home on the range I guess.
You don't have to be from Texas to love this song!
Nah...but it helps.
What a blast from the past! This was unofficially our anthem of US drilling crews working on oil & gas rigs in the North Sea in the 80's. We usually drove the British crews crazy by us singing it pretty much non stop the last few days till crew change!

Tejas isTejas🎉
You cannot know how much joy this brought me tonight ❤
This should be the national anthem of Texas,long over due............
RIP Jerry Jeff .......you made Texas proud. Godspeed my friend.
He's from New York...
@@BobPapadopoulos but lived most of his life in Texas so he's pretty much a texan
@@davidd9510 Hell, you don't have to be born in Texas or live there to love it.
@@philpearlman7088 amen!

I wish Texans weren't such egomaniacs. ;)

Nice comment!
I don't live in Texas anymore. 😪
I am homesick for it everyday.
One of the happiest days of my life was the first time I saw Texas - in the rear view mirror.
I miss Jerry...but am thankful that Gary P is still with us.
Yes, sir - Agreed. Just saw Gary P perform at Gruene hall this past weekend and he gave many nods to his old buddy Jackie Jack. It was a soul cleansing show.
Yes!
Going to see him tonight in Plano 🤠
I met Jerry Jeff Walker yesterday and told him that I was raised on his music. Will always remind me of my parents.
I don't care where you are or where you're from this song will make you homesick for Texas.
yup yup
I gotta move to L.A. so you know I'm going to miss Texas. Then, God willing, we are retiring in London. I already miss Texas. I will always visit Texas as long as I can walk to get on a plane.
Not if you DO NOT leave Texas
I love Texas, born in upstate new York but spent a lot of time in west Texas in the military , I want to go home with the armadillo, friendliest people and the prettiest woman I've ever seen.....
You are right about that!
Rest in peace Jerry Jeff Walker. He finally went home with the armadillos. He left behind a lot of great music for us to enjoy. There you go.
I just saw Gary P. Nunn last Saturday night in Hamilton, Texas(pop2800). Small venue but big music. Open air on the town square. He's now age 77 and kicking it harder than ever!
Last great American poet of the 20th century. So much stuff going on in this song. ❤
Me and Gary are jam up
I spent 4 years in Texas. No place like it. Still America there. Greatest musicians, prettiest women and finest people
Yes you make a good point in your comment, Hello how are you doing 💕👋👋👋
I have had great experiences in Texas. But I cannot understand why they vote in people like Ted Cruz and Abbott.
Because we want
to !!!!;
This gives me chills down my back!!! I doesn't get much better than this.
JJ, Gary P, Cowboy Bob, and John Inmon captured magic in a bottle for a few years.
It hits ya where ya live, even if it's not in Texas
RIP Jerry Jeff.
I'm sitting in my house in Pflugerville, Texas right now... and this song STILL made me home sick...
My kind of country music!
Gary P. Nunn and of course, JJ Walker,' Time has neither diminished nor tarnished this song. Pure Freaking Genius. Both of ya.
Thank you for posting this song.

I am Brazilian and I love the North American country .... Brazil also has country music quality! Hug ......

this song is great, and so easy to relate to. Anyone any where can enjoy this.
And I'm a westcoast Canadian. JJW rules

You can always come home,every things the same(some transplants are weird)but mostly the same!
We still don't take shi-!
PS.From just about anyone!!
I live in Ohio and spent a week in Kileen a couple of years ago. It was just terrific. The Texas people are polite, friendly and fun.

Unfortunately, Texas is changing, too...
Me: I blame it on the Republicans.
A State of Hate and that's coming from an Abilene boy.
Massachusetts ain’t gotta song like this. Texas Forever.
But JJW use to perform at the Harvard Square Theater quite frequently in the 70's and sing this song...he was from Upstate NY
How wrong you are! ruclips.net/video/Nmu6UMxUiUE/видео.htmlsi=jopH6SjknmxMmGah
Our 70's hero of song!! RIP our Texas Troubadour
Had the absolute pleasure of seeing JJ & band in Melbourne Australia in 1983. RIP Jerry Jeff you were the real deal..
A BIG LONE STAR SALUTE TO YOU JERRY A TRUE GIFT TO TEXAS YOU WERE .RIP COWBOY..
Have too many people lost the ability to have real fun and love of what their doing like musicians and music lovers getting off on the pleasure and fun of enjoying and doing what they love? Can’t hear this song without smiling , cheering, and wanting to join in

One of the best Country songs of the, 20th Century. A special thank you to Jerry Jeff Walker, for making it all possible.

The best performance of this song EVER!
Nobody ever had as much fun as Jerry Jeff Walker!
Sure l like this grand tune, with Gary P. Nunn and Jerry Jeff Walker. It couldn`t be better right now 😎

Ever heard England Swings?
2022. and it STILL doesn't get any better than this.
I was at TCU and grew to love this song. Great tune. Jerry Jeff is such a good guy, too.
Great to see Gary again. His gift for self-deprecating humor lives.
I wanna go home with the armadillo to. I remember my dad used to play this song when i was little and now god rest his soul i play it today. i love you dad.

This Song Really Makes Me Lonesome For That Ole Lone Star State

This could easily be the best song in the world
I’m from Massachusetts but I really love this song.
Gary P Nunn is the man.. just watched him do this live in Texas about 15 minutes ago
bob Awesome!!!!
"Happy" Energy combined with excellent musicianship. THEY FILL MY LIVING ROOM
I danced at the Armadillo World Headquarters in Austin and think about those by gone days when I hear this wonderful song.
Sam Hopkins Wasn’t the Armadillo World Headquarters the best!!!!
First time I saw Gary P was in 1974 or 75 in Hico TX. My freshman year at Tarleton State. Been a fan ever since.
My favorite song to listen to when I'm away from home. I must have played it every day on my Iraq deployments.
One of my favorite songs from back in the day. Still a sing along song!!!
Got baptized to this song in 74 in Tempe, AZ. at the Cave Bar. Good times.
One of my favourite songs..lived in Austin when it came out! Just about lived @ the Dillo
Viva terilingua, I was there just moved to Texas from California and the California jam, August of 1974 made me a country fan
There should be more of this. This is fun.
God Bless Gary P Nunn and RIP Jerry Jeff Walker
What a great TEXAS classic !!!! My grandparents lived in Gladewater, Texas!
14 miles down the road,been here all my 64 years
Listening to GaryP is like listening to Prez DonaldJ , mighty pleasing to an ole county boy. Thanks, Boom,Boom!
Yes it’s beautiful and I agree with you,Hello how are you doing 👋👋👋👋👋
Gives me goosebumps. Takes me back.
Born and raised in the midwest, right out of school I moved to Oklahoma and then Texas. The friendliest people and the prettiest women? 100% true!

My god I love this song and every person on that stage!!
That's okay, it just shows there are much fewer of us that have taste and recognize talent. I've seen Jerry Jeff, Gary, Billy Joe Shaver, Delbert McClinton, etc etc....many many times in small personal venues with every seat filled by good people. If they were a huge arena type acts, I would have never have the memories I enjoy now. Some of life's greatest pleasures and treasures should be shared and enjoyed by a select few that understand and truly deserve it. You're blessed you are one of them
GPN and JJF never stop "delivering" on GPN's signature song "London Homesick Blues." A TEXAS SIZE THANK YOU to BRod313 for posting this fabulous video
Grew up in same town as Gary. Got in a fight with his brother once. Saw Gary and Jerry play at Celebrity Theatre in Phoenix long ago. Gary is 3-4 yr older than me. RIP Jerry Jeff. RIP Steve Nunn.
Did not know he had passed. One of my favorites. Rip.with resprect.
Will always love Jerry Jeff Walker’s music! R.I.P.
Truly a wonderful classic. Did not get any better.
This is one of my all time favorites... makes me think of my family in Texas but it also makes me sad that I am not in texas!!!
Hello Doreen how are you doing 💕👋👋👋
Brilliant song !
Yes that truth,Hello how are you doing👋👋👋👋

I thank you kindly, Claude.
Bout that I seen him in Nocadoches Texas, never experienced such wild respect for our fellow man. Thank you Sir.
Jerry Jeff, miss you but thank God you left the songs.
THAT was worth the price of admission! Any Time!!!
The Amarillo was torn down and replace many years ago. Little by little Austin Texas is turning into a tiny L.A. But change is nothing new. Central Texas has been and will continue to evolve as time goes on. This song makes me homesick even in my hometown.
You mean the "Armadillo World"
Armadillo World Headquarters, to be correct.
Austin was a better place to live 45 or 50 years ago...
The best people in the world lived there
You got that right. Austin wasa magical place back then - when it was just plain Austin, not all chi-chi "Austin".and self-consciencly hip.
fuvcking californians and yankees
That is a musical masterpiece. Thank you for sharing, sir.
LOVE IT .. ICONIC! AMERICANA COUNTRY MUSIC
I hope Heaven is like this, if not I will be disappointed.
Me too 😘
Good Luck with that.
They say in Texas if you been good all your life when you die you don't go to heaven, you go to Willie's house.
