[Verse 1]Just when I thought I got him to fall in love with TennesseeI shoulda known better than to take him back to AbileneI put him right back into her armsI wasn't a match for that kind of spark [Chorus]She's from Texas, I can tell by the wayHe's two-steppin' 'round the roomAnd judgin' by the smile that's written on his faceThere's nothin' I can doIt doesn't take a crystal ball to seeA cowboy always finds a way to leaveDrinkin' Jack all by myselfHe's choosin' Texas, I can tell [Verse 2]Well, I guess he forgot about the Smoky Mountain rainThem old Hank tunes, the Memphis blues we used to singHe always loved "Amarillo by Morning"I should've taken that as a warnin' [Chorus]She's from Texas, I can tell by the wayHe's two-steppin' 'round the roomAnd judgin' by the smile that's written on his faceThere's nothin' I can doIt doesn't take a crystal ball to seeA cowboy always finds a way to leaveDrinkin' Jack all by myselfHe's choosin' Texas, I can tell [Bridge]When I'm eastbound and down, and I can't help but cry'Cause I-40 gets lonelier with every mileI'll know that his mind wasn't ever gonna change'Cause his heart still belongs to the Lone Star State [Chorus]She's from Texas, I can tell by the wayHe's two-steppin' 'round the roomAnd judgin' by the smile that's written on his faceThere's nothin' I can do, naw, yeahIt doesn't take a crystal ball to seeA cowboy always finds a way to leaveDrinkin' Jack all by myselfHe's choosin' Texas, I can tell, noDrinkin' Jack all by myselfHe's choosin' Texas, I can tell [Outro]Come on, babyOh yeahJust when I thought I got him to fall in love with Tennessee
