Texas Never Fell in Love With Me

Tom T. Hall · Soldier of Fortune [RCA Victor] [1980]

(Tom T. Hall)



It wasn't much but I sold it all and I moved to San Antone

Knowing in my heart that Texas had to be my home

I fell in love with Texas I was happy I was free

But Texas never fell in love with me.



I found out my style just didn't suit the local squirrels

I found out that I can't fit into a cowboy world

I'm back in Indiana just as lonesome as can be

Texas never fell in love with me.



--- Instrumental ---



I bought myself a cowboy hat of course it didn't fit

I bought myself a case of Coor's and I used to drink and sip

I watch the cowgirls come and go Lord don't they love to play

The one I wanted never came my way.



I found out my style just didn't suit the local squirrels

I found out that I can't fit into a cowboy world

I'm back in Indiana just as lonesome as can be

Texas never fell in love with me.
