Just when I thought I got him to fall in love with Tennessee
I should've known better than to take him back to Abilene
I put him right back into her arms
I wasn't a match for that kind of spark
She's from Texas, I can tell by the way
He's two-steppin' 'round the room
And judging by the smile that's written on his face
There's nothin' I can do
It doesn't take a crystal ball to see
A cowboy always finds a way to leave
Drinkin' Jack all by myself
He's choosin' Texas, I can tell
Well, I guess he forgot about the Smoky Mountain rain
Them old Hank tunes, the Memphis blues we used to sing
He always loved "Amarillo By Morning"
I should've taken that as a warnin'
She's from Texas, I can tell by the way
He's two-steppin' 'round the room
And judging by the smile that's written on his face
There's nothin' I can do
It doesn't take a crystal ball to see
A cowboy always finds a way to leave
Drinkin' Jack all by myself
He's choosin' Texas, I can tell
When I'm eastbound and down, and I can't help but cry
'Cause I-40 gets lonelier with every mile
I'll know that his mind wasn't ever gonna change
'Cause his heart still belongs to the Lone Star State
She's from Texas, I can tell by the way
He's two-steppin' 'round the room
And judging by the smile that's written on his face
There's nothin' I can do, no
It doesn't take a crystal ball to see
A cowboy always finds a way to leave
Drinkin' Jack all by myself
He's choosin' Texas, I can tell, no
Drinkin' Jack all by myself
He's choosin' Texas, I can tell
Come on, baby
Oh-oh, yeah
Just when I thought I got him to fall in love with Tennessee
