(johnny macrae/richard ross/danny kees)



He said, "i'll make your dreams come true in texax

And he captured my appalachian heart

I was so naive that i believed him

When he promised we'd never be apart



So we packed and pulled a u-haul down to dallas

A year went by and the baby came along

Then his old friends and the night life came between us

Dreams turned into sleepless nights of waiting all alone



Im staring out the window through these teardrops

Holding on to the only dream that turned out right

We're on a greyhound bound for west virginia

He's in dallas without us tonight



Oh lord i hate to break the news to mama

She's gettin on in years and worries so

Maybe i should've stayed in dallas

And given him another chance

Right now i just don't know



Im staring out the window through these teardrops

Holding on to the only dream that turned out right

We're on a greyhound bound for west virginia

He's in dallas without us tonight



He said i'll make your dreams come true in texas

He lives in dallas without us tonight
