South

He's got his white t-shirt on
Blue jeans and a rolled up cigarette
Thought he'd go and grab a drink
He had a conversation that he wouldn't forget
She was wearing scarlet red
Dresses to impress
Smooth talker real nice
And when that evening ended
He asked to see her another time

But she said I'm moving south to Texas
To start a life of my own
I've been living in this town too long
I think it's time to go
It was really nice to meet you
But I'm going the other way
So please don't, don't ask me to stay

Woke up on the right side of the bed
The glass is half full inside her head
Something's changed since she met that man
Maybe this town ain't so bad after all
Maybe I can make a life of my own right here
Maybe I could stay

But she told herself I'm moving south to Texas
To start a life of my own
I've been living in this town so long
I think it's time to go
It was really nice to meet him but I'm going the other way
So please don't, don't think you should stay
Oh no

Walking down those steps she saw him standing there
It was only making it harder for her
Don't try and stop me I'm going my own way
But then she saw his luggage by the chair

And he said we're moving south to Texas
To start a life of our own
We've been living in this town too long
I think it's time we go
It was really nice to meet you so I'm coming your way
You know I won't, I won't let you slip away
Oh no
