Texas & Tennessee

It was Texas, it was Tennessee

It was what I had come into me

You were unlike anything before

Black magic, devil killer, I was yours

It was the early days of rock 'n roll

It was Otis, it was Memphis soul

It was a plane crash, it was overnight

It was burnin' fast and burnin' bright

Baby, don't you talk no more, that 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, darlin', it was my claim to fame

And I knew that when I met you, all that you would need is more than what I got

Oh, so baby, please just stop

It was Texas, it was Tennessee

It was exes and some wannabes

It was reckless, it was understood

It didn't matter cuz 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, cuz I know it well

I've said it all before to someone else

Baby, don't you talk no more, that 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, darlin', it was my claim to fame

And I knew that when I met you, all that you would need is more than what I got

Oh, so baby, please just stop

It was Texas, it was Tennessee

A kind of love a-closer kin to grief

It was everything that I could want

But California came and took it all

Baby, don't you talk no more, that 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, darlin', it was my claim to fame

And I knew that when I met you, all that you would need is more than what I got

Oh, so baby, please just stop
