I come and go as I please.
From down here, up North and inbetween,
But baby it's a shame 'cause I always feel the same
When I can't see Texas from here.

I can't see Texas from here.
No matter how I try, it makes me want to cry.
So if you see me lookin' down,
I'm tryin' not to show this frown
'Cause I can't see Texas from here.

I can't say I don't like Tennessee.
The people here have all been good to me.
So please don't take offense if I start to get intense
Just 'cause I can't see Texas from here.

I can't see Texas from here.
No matter how I try, it makes me want to cry.
So if you see me lookin' down,
I'm tryin' not to show this frown
'Cause I can't see Texas from here.
(2x)

'Cause I can't see Texas, I can't see Texas,
I can't see Texas from here.
