Intro Dallas packed her suitcase and drove off in the brand new car I bought her She made leaving me look easy I wish she'd make it look a little harder I took her out of Texas when she was just a girl But tennesee and me couldn't take texas out of her Oh how I wish dallas was in tennesee If i could move texas east then she here with me Then nothing else could come between the two of us If dallas was in tennesee 2nd verse: By now she's leaving memphis and everthing we had behind her Lord I hope the gold band on her hand will serve as a reminder That true love is a treasure that's very seldom found But you cant stay together if there is no comman ground
