Texas Heartache Songtext
von Juice Newton

I grew up in Texas
When I was seventeen
Gave my heart to a rodeo rider
Best lookin′ thing I've ever seen

He took me far as Dallas
I′d never been that far before
He told me that he loved me
But he loved his freedom more


There's a heartache, deep in the heart of Texas
There's a yellow rose witherin′ on the vine
There′s a heartache, deep in the heart of Texas
Oh, it takes more than a woman to change a cowboy's mind

So I went back to Houston
Thinkin′ he'd come home someday
But home is where your heart is
And his is always away

Some heartaches you get over
Some just grow with time
And it takes a place as big as Texas
To hold a heartache big as mine


There′s a heartache, deep in the heart of Texas
There's a yellow rose witherin′ on the vine
There's a heartache, deep in the heart of Texas
Oh, it takes more than a woman to change a cowboy's mind
