Each night when I sleep I dream of a love in my town
I don`t count sheep just the faces of her in my town
I miss her all the time and she`s always on my mind and then some
A love that is mine gonna stay there this time in my town
Well I write her letters and I always send her X`s
And I`m a going back cause there ain`t a darn cow in Texas
No need to wait cause I`ve been every place and then some
And that love that has mind will keep me this time in my town
Well I`m a gonna get there as fast as I can get there back to my town
Maybe a long time but not a lifetime
I`m a gonna hold her tight squeeze her with all my might
Then I put my suitcase down
Well I`ve met a lot of girls but never like that girl in my town
They remind me of her then they make me lonesome for my town
I knew it all the time though I put it from my mind but I learn some
That the girl that has mind will keep me this time in my town
That the girl that has mind will keep me this time in my town
