It was written by the band's lead guitarist Porter Howell, and keyboardist and vocalist Brady Seals.

The song, with lead vocals by Tim Rushlow, celebrates Texas pride by saying that God must have evidently given the state special attention and furthermore provided the state its unique and legendary geography and demography.

This intro was omitted from the radio version, which was used for the music video, as well as the opening track on the band's greatest-hits compilation.

The music video, directed by Gerry Wenner, takes place at a pool party with many bikini-clad women.

Joe Jonas performed the song in an episode of the second season of The Righteous Gemstones.
