Goldthwaite, Texas

**Song:** *Waltz Across Texas* **Popularized by:** Ernest Tubb **Written by:** Ernest Tubb A Texas honky-tonk number that folds a small Hill Country town into Tubb's easygoing, road-weary style. As with much of his catalog, the appeal is in the plainspoken detail and the sense of real places remembered in song rather than invented for effect.
