Choosin' Texas
Just when I thought I got him to fall in love with Tennessee
I should've known better than to take him back to Abilene
I put him right back into her arms
I wasn't a match for that kind of spark
She's from Texas, I can tell by the way
He's two-stepping 'round the room
And judging by the smile that's written on his face
There's nothing I can do
It doesn't take a crystal ball to see
A cowboy always finds a way to leave
Drinking Jack all by myself
He's choosin' Texas, I can tell
Well, I guess he forgot about the Smoky Mountain rain
Them old Hank tunes, the Memphis blues we used to sing
He always loved "Amarillo by Morning"
I should've taken that as a warning
She's from Texas, I can tell by the way
He's two-stepping 'round the room
And judging by the smile that's written on his face
There's nothing I can do
It doesn't take a crystal ball to see
A cowboy always finds a way to leave
Drinking Jack all by myself
He's choosin' Texas, I can tell
When I'm eastbound and down and I can't help but cry
'Cause I-40 gets lonelier with every mile
I'll know that his mind wasn't ever gonna change
'Cause his heart still belongs to the Lone Star State
She's from Texas, I can tell by the way
He's two-stepping 'round the room
And judging by the smile that's written on his face
There's nothing I can do, naw, yeah
It doesn't take a crystal ball to see
A cowboy always finds a way to leave
Drinking Jack all by myself
He's choosin' Texas, I can tell, no
Drinking Jack all by myself
He's choosin' Texas, I can tell
Come on, baby
Oh yeah
Just when I thought I got him to fall in love with Tennessee
Significado de la letra
En la canción 'Choosin' Texas' de Ella Langley, nos cuenta la historia de una mujer que se da cuenta de que no puede competir con el amor que su pareja siente por Texas. A pesar de sus esfuerzos por enamorarlo de Tennessee, al llevarlo de regreso a Abilene, se da cuenta de que su rival es imbatible. Observa cómo su pareja baila alegremente al ritmo de la música country y sonríe con una felicidad que ella no puede igualar. Aunque recuerda los momentos compartidos en Tennessee, parece resignarse al hecho de que su corazón pertenece al estado de Lone Star.
La protagonista reflexiona sobre los recuerdos de los Smoky Mountains, las canciones de Hank Williams y los 'Blues de Memphis' que solían disfrutar juntos. A pesar de todo, sabe que su pareja siempre amará 'Amarillo by Morning' y eso debería haber sido una advertencia. A medida que se aleja hacia el este, sintiendo la soledad de la carretera, comprende que Texas siempre será su hogar en el corazón de su amado.
La canción transmite una sensación de resignación y melancolía, mientras la protagonista describe su lucha por retener a su pareja, sabiendo en lo más profundo de su ser que él siempre elegirá Texas. A través de la música y las letras emotivas, nos sumergimos en un relato de amor perdido y la aceptación de un destino inevitable.
