Just when I thought I got him to fall in love with TennesseeI shoulda known better than to take him back to AbileneI put him right back into her armsI wasn't a match for that kinda spark
She's from Texas I can tell by the wayHe's two steppin' round the roomAnd judgin' by the smile that's written on his faceThere's nothin' I can to doIt doesn't take a crystal ball to seeA cowboy always finds a way to leaveDrinkin' Jack all by myselfHe's choosin' Texas I can tell
Well, I guess he forgot about the smoky mountain rainThem old Hank tunes the Memphis blues we used singHe always loved Amarillo By MorningI shoulda taken that as warning
She's from Texas I can tell by the wayHe's two steppin' round the roomAnd judgin' by the smile that's written on his faceThere's nothin' I can to doIt doesn't take a crystal ball to seeA cowboy always finds a way to leaveDrinkin' Jack all by myselfHe's choosin' Texas I can tell
When I'm eastbound and down and I can't help but cryCause I-40 gets lonelier with every mileI'll know that his mind wasn't ever gonna changeCause his heart still belongs to the lone star state
She's from Texas I can tell by the wayHe's two steppin' round the roomAnd judgin' by the smile that's written on his faceThere's nothin' I can to do, naw yeahIt doesn't take a crystal ball to seeA cowboy always finds a way to leaveDrinkin' Jack all by myselfHe's choosing Texas I can tell, noDrinkin' Jack all by myselfHe's choosin' Texas I can tell
C'mon babyOhh yeahJust when I thought I got him to fall in love with Tennessee
