Corsicana, Texas

Region: Prairies & Lakes

Not many rural communities can claim two of country music’s biggest stars as their own, but Corsicana is the birthplace of country music legend Lefty Frizzell as well as songwriting phenomenon Billy Joe Shaver. The Navarro county seat, Corsicana boasts a beautiful historic district with many local businesses that have served the community for decades – including a diner that has been in continuous operation for a century.

Don’t miss the Lefty Frizzell museum, featuring a life-size bronze statue of Lefty and a collection of his furniture, music, photographs and western suits from the famous Nudies Tailor.
