Cal Smith – She Talked A Lot About Texas Lyrics

She always wanted me to go to Texas
But I told her Texas ain’t no place for me
But to tell the truth I was too afraid of Texas
And a big wild Texas cowboy’s memory

She said everything was bigger and better in Texas
Mention Dallas and her face would start to glow
Fort Worth is where she met her second husband
She never did say why he let her go

She talked a lot about Texas
And the warm west wind blowing through her hair
She talked a lot about Texas
And by this time tomorrow she’ll be there

Monday night she came down with a fever
Tuesday she was babbling in her troubled sleep
She was crying and asking why he had to leave her
And Texas was the final breath she breathed

She talked a lot about Texas
And the warm west wind blowing through her hair
She talked a lot about Texas
And this time tomorrow she’ll be buried there
