[Chorus] All my ex's live in Texas And Texas is the place I'd dearly love to be But all my ex's live in Texas And that's why I hang my hat in Tennessee Rosanna's down in Texarkana Wanted me to push her broom Sweet Eileen's in Abilene She forgot I hung the moon And Allison's in Galveston Somehow lost her sanity And Dimple's who now lives in Temple's Got the law looking for me [Chorus] I remember that old Frio River Where I learned to swim But it brings to mind another time Where I wore my welcome thin By transcendental meditation I go there each night But I always come back to myself Long before daylight All my ex's live in Texas And Texas is the place I'd dearly love to be But all my ex's live in Texas Therefore I reside in Tennessee Some folks think I'm hidin' It's been rumored that I died But I'm alive and well in Tennessee
