I Hate Texas

[Verse 1]
Fell in love with the Lone Star state
Let my lone heart break while you drove off in those Dallas plates
Made my way to White Rock Lake
Neal talked me through the pain
I said, "Does love always have to end this way?"

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause nobody told me
The storybook endings weren't the way things would be
Yeah, nobody told me
That twelve-year-old me
Wouldn't get that prince on a white steed
Or twelvе carats on a gold ring
But now I'm screaming

[Chorus]
I hate Texas
Whеn those bluebonnets bloom
Yeah, I can't help but think of you, no matter how hard I try not to
I hate laughing
When I see that mansion we said we'd get
Settle down, have a couple kids, got me remembering when (Remembering when)
Every Sunday was the same
God bless the Cowboys game
Miss your daddy asking me to say that grace
And I can't help it 'cause I love Texas
Now I hate Texas

[Verse 2]
Wrote your name in a Sharpie pen
Right there on my left hand
Thought that shit was permanent (Permanent)
But after a million fights
Can't figure out who was wrong or right
Only led us to a bad goodbye

[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah, nobody told me
Storybook endings weren't the way things would be
Yeah, nobody told me
Sixteen-year-old me
Wouldn't get that white picket fence dream
While I'm pouring this Texaco gasoline
It's got me thinking

[Chorus]
I hate Texas
When those bluebonnets bloom
Yeah, I can't help but think of you, no matter how hard I try not to
I hate laughing
When I see that mansion we said we'd get
Settle down, have a couple kids, got me remembering when (Remembering when)
Every Sunday was the same
God bless the Cowboys game
I miss your daddy asking me to say that grace (Grace)
And I can't help it 'cause I love Texas

[Bridge]
And I don't wanna give it up
Kept the memories long enough
Learned my lesson
Yeah, I think it's best if

[Chorus]
I hate Texas (Hate)
When those bluebonnets bloom (Oh)
Yeah, I can't help but think of you, no matter how hard I try not to (Ooh)
I hate laughing
When I see that mansion we said we'd get
Settle down, have a couple kids, got me remembering when (Remembering when)
Every Sunday was the same
God bless the Cowboys game
I miss your daddy asking me to say that grace (Oh)
And I can't help it 'cause I love Texas
Now I hate Texas
