"Blame It on Texas" is a country song performed by Mark Chesnutt. It was released in 1991 as the fourth single from his album "Longnecks & Short Stories." The song was written by Bobby Boyd, Charlie Craig, and Austin Roberts. The lyrics of "Blame It on Texas" tell the story of a man who finds himself in a difficult situation, likely involving a failed relationship. Instead of taking personal responsibility for the problems he's facing, he chooses to "blame it on Texas," suggesting that the state's wild and unpredictable nature somehow led him astray. The song captures the essence of country music storytelling, with its blend of humor, heartache, and regional pride. Chesnutt's smooth vocals and traditional country sound helped propel the song to success on the country music charts, where it reached the top ten.

The song's lyrics explore the feelings of heartbreak and vulnerability after a relationship has ended. The narrator expresses a sense of desperation and longing, reaching out for help ("So when you're near me, darling, can't you hear me SOS?"). Despite the upbeat tempo and catchy melody, the song conveys a deep emotional resonance, reflecting the complexities of love and loss. ABBA's "SOS" was a commercial success, reaching the top 10 in numerous countries around the world. Its memorable hook and poignant lyrics have made it one of the band's most enduring hits. The backstory behind "SOS" isn't particularly dramatic. According to Benny Andersson, the melody came to him while he was taking a shower. He called Björn Ulvaeus over to help him finish it, and together with Stig Anderson, they crafted the lyrics. The song was recorded in August 1974 and released as a single in 1975, becoming one of ABBA's signature songs.
