Leaving me, girl, moving on down the road
You left me many burdens, such a heavy load
And it sure does bring me out
When I think about what went down

Well, the crossroads all my life, it has been
And I'm so afraid, but now I'm trying to see
I just rode on through life
Till I took the time to concentrate on you

Well, you can preach me like a lesson
You can bring me a lot of gold
But you just can't live in Texas
If you don't have a lot of soul

I'm leaving here tonight for the very last time
Yes I'm leaving you, babe, 'cause now I know that you ain't mine
And where you're living now
You'll find out and how that you never had a friend

Well, you can preach me like a lesson
You can bring me a lot of gold
But you just can't live in Texas
If you don't have a lot of soul

Well, I'm leaving here tonight for the very last time
Yes I'm leaving you, girl, 'cause now I know that you ain't mine
Someday a change will come
And you'll be there beside me one more time, one more time
Yeah!
And you'll be there beside me one more time
Yes, you'll be there beside me one more time
