He ain't hanging up his hat, no
He's putting it back on while he's still able
I didn't ask him what he was doing
Just pushed my chair back against the table
All he said was something like
"I didn't think she'd ever leave him"
Now he's going back to Texas
He never left it to begin with
She used to love the night time
He couldn't help but wish for something more
He'd give her a sky full of diamonds
She'd give him that million mile rainbow
I wonder if he's told her
But you know it's not really none of my business
Still he's going back to Texas
He never left it to begin with
I wonder if his heart did race
Half as much as my imagination
All that's left are assumptions
When you have silence for conversation
But I knew what he was thinking
As he smiled and winked at that waitress
Yeah, he's going back to Texas
He never left it to begin with
Yes he's going back to Texas
He never left it to begin with
(Watch him walk; hear him talk)
