Well, you're going to have to share me with Texas
You're going to have to let me take my time
From the honky-tonks in Dallas to the banks of the Pedernales
Wherever that county two-lane winds

You're going to have to share me with the wildflowers
When I can't get the Highway from my mind
You're going to have to share me with Texas
'Cause I can't leave Texas behind

Oh and I do love you
And I'll always be true
As long as I can wander
In those meadows down yonder
Where that country moon
Shines through

Oh, I wish you'd take me where that traffic won't wake me
And love me when you're so inclined
You're going to have to share me with Texas
'Cause I can't leave Texas behind

Well, you're going to have to share me with the fireflies
I'll be staring at those stars 'til I go blind
You're going to have to share me with Texas
'Cause I can't leave, I won't leave Texas, no, I can't leave Texas behind
