Texas And Tennessee
(Intro)
This one's called, this one's called Texas And Tennessee
(Verse)
Well, it was Texas, it was Tennessee
It was what I had come into me
You were unlike anything befo'
A magic devil killer, I was yours
It was the early days of rock and roll
It was Otis, it was Memphis soul
It was a plane crash, t'was overnight
It was burning fast and burning bright
(Chorus)
Baby, don't you talk no more
The looks is loud enough
You don't have to tell me how
It feels not to be in love
You see, that was my oldest game
Darling, it was my claim to fame
And I knew that when I met you
All that you would need is more than I've got
Oh, so baby, please just stop!
(Verse 2)
It was Texas, it was Tennessee
It was exes and some wannabes
It was reckless, it was understood
It didn't matter cause it felt so good
And I'll still be here if you change your mind
But I can see the leaving in your eyes
Don't want to hear it, cause I know it well
I've said it all before to someone else
(Chorus)
Baby, don't you talk no more
The looks is loud enough
You don't have to tell me how
It feels not to be in love
You see, that was my oldest game
Darling, it was my claim to fame
And I knew that when I met you
All that you would need is more than I've got
Oh, so baby, please just stop!
(Instrumental break)
It was Texas, it was Tennessee
A kind of love acloser kin to grief
It was everythin' that I could want
But California came and took it all
(Chorus)
Baby, don't you talk no more
The looks is loud enough
You don't have to tell me how
It feels not to be in love
You see, that was my oldest game
Darling, it was my claim to fame
And I knew that when I met you
All that you would need is more than I've got
Oh, so baby, please just stop!
