And I even called a friend of mine from Texas to make sure Corpus Christi was on the coast and all that stuff. Pat Alger came up with the title to this song. It was based on the Billy Joel song "New York State Of Mind. Said Alger, "I always thought it's not the New York State, it's the Empire State. I always thought that was a wrong – it's the only thing I didn't like about the song. More songs from Nanci Griffith. More songs from 1987. Lyrics to Lone Star State of Mind.
