Forget the typical stories about lonely nights and whiskey bottles. Everyone thought the biggest song in country music was born from a painful heartbreak. But for Ella Langley’s Choosin’ Texas the real story is much stranger.
It involves a secret that Ella Langley kept for years until she finally asked Miranda Lambert a question that changed everything. Was it a tragic split that fueled the lyrics, or was it something totally bizarre?
She said Miranda Lambert once got pulled over with a pet kangaroo in her passenger seat. Miranda actually changed her entire tour schedule just to keep her exotic friend by her side. When she told Ella about the chaos of that police stop, the famous line about being from Texas just fell out. This is the kind of “outlaw” history that you simply cannot make up.
