Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Buddy raised his beer and laughed Said, "All my exes live in Texas" Jukebox spinnin', Friday night Neon over by the exits I took a sip, said, "Sounds real nice" But that ain't how it went for me Mine still haunt my hometown roads From Memphis down to Cherokee [Chorus] Somebody's exes live in Texas Meanwhile mine live in Tennessee Every backroad, every barstool Got a ghost still waitin' on me Yeah, they’re scattered ‘round this state line From the river to the Smoky peaks Somebody’s exes live in Texas But mine live in Tennessee [Verse 2] There's a blonde girl runnin' Bristol Who still calls when she gets bored There's a nurse down in Murfreesboro Keeps my T-shirt in her drawer Got a ring I never offered Sittin' pawned in Gatlinburg And a love song in Clarksville She still swears was ‘bout her [Chorus] Somebody's exes live in Texas Meanwhile mine live in Tennessee Every backroad, every barstool Got a ghost still waitin' on me Yeah, they’re scattered ‘round this state line From the river to the Smoky peaks Somebody’s exes live in Texas But mine live in Tennessee [Bridge] So don't take me on a road trip ‘Less you wanna hear ‘bout us Every mile’s another memory Every town, another “almost was” (oh-oh) [Chorus] Somebody's exes live in Texas Meanwhile mine live in Tennessee Every backroad, every barstool Got a ghost still waitin' on me Yeah, they’re scattered ‘round this state line And they still mean too much to me Somebody’s exes live in Texas But mine live in Tennessee (Tennessee) Yeah, mine live in Tennessee
