Ohio was a riverbank
A ten speed layin in the weeds
Cannonball off an old rope swing
Long, long summer days

Tennessee was a guitar
The first big dream of mine
If I made yeah that'd be just fine
I just wanted to play
I just wanted to play but

Texas
Was green eyes crying goodbye
Was a long drive
A heartache I'm
Still trying to get through
Texas was you

Caroline was a black car
A big white number 3

California was a yellow jeep
Cruising down Big Sur

Georgia was a summer job

And 'Bama was a spring break
I got memories all over the place
But only one still hurts
Only one still hurts

Texas
Was green eyes crying goodbye
Was a long drive
A heartache I'm
Still trying to get through
Texas was you

Texas
Was my whole life waving goodbye
Thought I'd die
A heartache I'm
Still trying to get through

Texas was you

It'll always be you
