[Verse 1]

Ohio was a riverbank

A ten speed layin' in the weeds

Cannonball off an old rope swing

Long, long summer days

[Verse 2]

Tennessee was a guitar

First big dream of mine

If I made it, yeah, that'd be just fine

I just wanted to play

I just wanted to play, but

[Chorus]

Texas was green eyes crying goodbye

Was a long drive

A heartache I'm still trying to get through

Texas was you

[Verse 3]

Carolina was a black car

A big white number three

California was a yellow Jeep

Cruisin' down Big Sur

Haha

[Verse 4]

Georgia was a summer job

'Bama was a spring break

I got memories all over the place

But only one still hurts

Only one still hurts like

[Chorus]

Texas was green eyes crying goodbye

Was a long drive

A heartache I'm still trying to get through

Texas was you

[Chorus 2]

Texas was my whole life waving goodbye

'Thought I'd die

A heartache I'm still trying to get through

Texas was you

[Outro]

It'll always be you
