All my ex´s live in Texas, And Texas is a place I´d dearly love to be. But all my ex´s live in Texas And that´s why I hang my hat in Tennessee.
Rosanna´s down in Texarcana; wanted me to push her broom, And sweet Ilene´s in Abilene; she forgot I hung the moon, And Allison in Galveston somehow lost her sanity, And Dimples who now lives in Temple´s got the law lookin´ for me.

I remember that old Frio river where I learned to swim. And it brings to mind another time where I wore my welcome thin. My transcendental meditation, I go there each night,
But I always come back to myself long before daylight.

Some folks think I´m hidin´, It´s been rumored that I died, But I´m alive and well in Tennessee.
