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 texarcana wanted me to push her broom
And sweet arlene in abilene she forgot i owned the moon
And allison in galviston somehow lost her sanity
And dimples who now lives in temple's got the law looking for me.
I remember that old rio river where i learned to swim
But it brings to mind another time when i wore my welcome thin
My transcendental meditation i go there each night
But i'll always come back to myself long before daylight.
Some folks think i'm hiding
It's been rumored that i died
But i'm alive and well in tennessee.
