All my Ex's live in Texas
And Texas is the place I'd really 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 Temple's got the law lookin' for me
All my Ex's live in Texas
And Texas is the place I'd really love to be
But all my Ex's live in Texas
And that's why I hang my hat in Tennessee
I remember that ole Frio River where I learned to swim
But it brings to mind another time where 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
And Texas is the place I'd really 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 rumored that I died
But I'm alive and well in Tennessee
