Don't Mess With Texas

I’ve played every cover band bar on 6th Street

We sang along got high to some Willie

Swore one day I’d play that Houston Rodeo

I learned to love a lone-star sunset

I never thought I ever would’ve left it

But now I don’t mess with Texas anymore

I can’t drive down the 35 highway

Can’t touch a two-steppin’ honky tonk floor

I guess it’s true what they say about exes

Should’ve listened to George

'Cause she went and broke my heart like them Cowboys

A heartache bigger than ever before

Yeah, I learned my lesson

So I don’t mess with Texas anymore

She was a wild mustang out of Dallas

Soon as met her there was no way around it

She beat every California girl I’ve ever known

Hot as the desert

Should’ve known better

She was gonna lead me on but I let her

Last I heard she left Fort Worth for San Antone

Now I can’t drive down that 35 highway

Can’t touch a two-steppin’ honky tonk floor

I guess it’s true what they say about exes

Should’ve listened to George

'Cause she went and broke my heart like them Cowboys

A heartache bigger than ever before

Yeah, I learned my lesson

So I don’t mess with Texas anymore

I can’t drive down that 35 highway

Can’t touch a two-steppin’ honky tonk floor

I guess it’s true what they say about exes

Should’ve listened to George

'Cause she went and broke my heart like them Cowboys

A heartache bigger than ever before

Yeah, I learned my lesson

So I don’t mess with Texas anymore

Yeah, I learned my lesson

So I don’t mess with Texas anymore
