Lucero - Texas And Tennessee lyrics

rate me

(Intro)

This one's called, this one's called Texas And Tennessee

(Verse)

Well, it was Texas, it was Tennessee

It was what I had come into me

You were unlike anything befo'

A magic devil killer, I was yours

It was the early days of rock and roll

It was Otis, it was Memphis soul

It was a plane crash, t'was overnight

It was burning fast and burning bright

(Chorus)

Baby, don't you talk no more

The 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

Darling, it was my claim to fame

And I knew that when I met you

All that you would need is more than I've got

Oh, so baby, please just stop!

(Verse 2)

It was Texas, it was Tennessee

It was exes and some wannabes

It was reckless, it was understood

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

I've said it all before to someone else

(Chorus)

Baby, don't you talk no more

The 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

Darling, it was my claim to fame

And I knew that when I met you

All that you would need is more than I've got

Oh, so baby, please just stop!

(Instrumental break)

It was Texas, it was Tennessee

A kind of love acloser kin to grief

It was everythin' that I could want

But California came and took it all

(Chorus)

Baby, don't you talk no more

The 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

Darling, it was my claim to fame

And I knew that when I met you

All that you would need is more than I've got

Oh, so baby, please just stop!
