"Mess With Texas" lyrics

"Mess With Texas"

Ran out of lovers in the lover's state
And Kentucky left me blue
Arizona bent my heart but it didn't break
And Alabama broke it in two
Missouri really hurt me
Mississippi was hard to miss
Georgia wasn't on my mind
And Carolina wasn't kind
And there's one left on my list

It sure ain't lonely in the lone-star state
Guess it's true what people say
It's bigger and it's better
So I think I'll stay forever
He's my first rodeo
Hope he ain't my last
Houston ain't a problem
I can pack my bag
Settle down settled in
Yeah I'm done collecting exes
Momma I'm sorry, I'm prolly gonna mess with Texas

If he rides out of town and leaves me high and dry
Ain't sure what I will do
It'll ruin daffodils and Amarillo skies
And baby blue bonnets too
Am I crazy, well maybe
But lovin' you sure is fun
I'm way too lost in Austin
When it's all said and done

It sure ain't lonely in the lone-star state
Guess it's true what people say
It's bigger and it's better
So I think I'll stay forever
He's my first rodeo
Hope he ain't my last
Houston ain't a problem
I can pack my bag
Settle down settled in
Yeah I'm done collecting exes
Momma I'm sorry, I'm prolly gonna mess with Texas

His hand's in my back pocket
It's going pretty swell
His face is in my locket, so as far as I can tell

It sure ain't lonely in the lone-star state
Guess it's true what people say
It's bigger and it's better
So I think I'll stay forever
He's my first rodeo
Hope he ain't my last
Houston ain't a problem
I can pack my bag
Settle down settled in
Yeah I'm done collecting exes
And if it all goes south I'm headed back to Richmond
Momma I'm sorry, I'm prolly gonna mess with Texas
Momma I'm sorry, I've gone and messed with Texas
