Texas Was You

Ohio was a riverbank

A ten speed laying in the weeds

Cannonball off an old rope swing

Long, long summer days

Tennessee was a guitar

A first big dream of mine

If I made it yeah, that’d be just fine

I just wanted to play, I just wanted to play but

Texas, was green eyes, crying goodbye

Was a long drive, a heartache I’m

Still trying to get through

Texas was you

Carolina was a black car

A big white number three

California was a yellow Jeep

Cruising down Big Sur, ha-ha

Georgia was a summer job

And Bama was a Spring break

I got memories all over the place

But only one still hurts, only one still hurts like

Texas, was green eyes, crying goodbye

Was a long drive, a heartache I’m

Still trying to get through

Texas was you

Texas, was my whole life, waving goodbye

Thought I’d die, a heartache I’m

Still trying to get through

Texas was you

It’ll always be you
