Chorus:

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 eileenõs in abilene

She forgot i hung the moon

And allisonõs in galveston

Somehow lost her sanity

And dimpleõs who now lives in temple's

Got the law looking for me



Chorus



I remember that old 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 id 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 rumored that i died

But i'm alive and well in tennessee
