Lyrics

All my ex's live in Texas And Texas is the 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 Texarkana Wanted me to push her broom Sweet Eileen's in Abilene She forgot I hung the moon And Allison's in Galveston Somehow lost her sanity And Dimples, who now lives in Temples Got the law looking for me All my ex's live in Texas And Texas is the place I'd dearly love to be But all my ex's live in Texas That's why I hang my hat in Tennessee (play it, boys) I remember that old Frío River Where I learned to swim But it brings to mind another time When I wore my welcome thin By transcendental meditation I go there each night But I always come back to myself Long before daylight All my ex's live in Texas (yes, they do) And Texas is the place I'd dearly love to be But all my ex's live in Texas Therefore, I reside in Tennessee Some folks think I'm hidin' It's been rumoured that I died I'm alive and well in Tennessee Yep Thank you Thank you very much
