"Left My Heart In Texas" lyrics

"Left My Heart In Texas"

Girl, I really like ya
This flame's getting higher
Ain't no way that this night can go wrong
'Fore we get lost in the whiskey
And you lean in to kiss me
Baby, I don't know where to start...

I left my heart in Texas
Somehow I ended up a lone star in Tennessee
I don't know why she kept it
And won't give it back when she wants nothing to do with me
I'm getting by one day at a time
But tonight it's taking over my mind
We can dance 'round the wreckage
But I left my heart in Texas

You deserve real affection
Undivided attention
If you let me I can give it a try
But if you finish your beer
And get the hell out of here
I don't blame you, girl, you got every right!

I left my heart in Texas
Somehow I ended up a lone star in Tennessee
I don't know why she kept it
And won't give it back when she wants nothing to do with me
I'm getting by one day at a time
But tonight it's taking over my mind
We can dance 'round the wreckage
But I left my heart in Texas

Don't they say that devil's down in Georgia
But I don't believe 'em
Dallas, Austin, Houston, San Antone
Wherever she goes...

I left my heart in Texas
Somehow I ended up a lone star in Tennessee
I don't know why she kept it
And won't give it back when she wants nothing to do with me
I'm getting by one day at a time
But tonight it's taking over my mind
We can dance 'round the wreckage
But I left my heart in Texas
