Dallas packed her suitcase
|
And drove off in the brand new car I bought her
|
She made leaving me look easy
|
I wish she'd made it look a little harder
|
|
I took her out of Texas
|
When she was just a girl
|
But old Tennessee and me
|
Couldn't take Texas out of her
|
|
On how I wish Dallas was in Tennessee
|
If I could move Texas east
|
Then she'd be here with me
|
Then nothin' else would come between the two of us
|
If Dallas was in Tennessee
|
|
(Instrumental)
|
|
By now she's leaving Memphis
|
And everything we had behind her
|
Lord I hope the gold band on her hand
|
Will serve as a reminder
|
|
That true love is a treasure
|
That's very seldom found
|
But you can't stay together if there's no common ground
|
|
Oh how I wish Dallas was in Tennessee
|
If I could move Texas east
|
Then she'd be here with me
|
|
Then nothin' else would come between the two of us
|
If Dallas was in Tennessee
|
Oh if Dallas was in Tennessee
|
|
Dallas packed her suitcase
|
And drove off in the brand new car I bought her
|
