Texas Never Fell in Love With Me Lyrics

It wasn't much but I sold it all and I moved to San Antone
Knowing in my heart that Texas had to be my home
I fell in love with Texas I was happy I was free but Texas never fell in love with me
I found out my style just didn't suit the local squirrels
I found out that I can't fit into a cowboy world
I'm back in Indiana just as lonesome as can be Texas never fell in love with me

I bought myself a cowboy hat of course it didn't fit
I bought myself a case of Coor's and I used to drink and sip
I watch the cowgirls come and go Lord don't they love to play
The one I wanted never came my way
I found out my style...
Texas never fell in love with me

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
