Tanya Tucker - I'm In Love And He's In Dallas lyrics

Mama said "Tell me what's wrong child You didn't eat enough To keep a bird alive And you haven't said Two words to me all evening." She said "Girl, you've got your long face on Your eyes are red And your smile is gone." So I broke down And I told my mama the reason I'm in love and he's in Dallas I'm as blue as a girl can be Is he down there thinkin' about my love Or driftin' away from me? I'm in love and he's in Dallas But that's not the way it's s'pposed to be Can a promise reach from Texas All the way to Tennesee? I really shoulda heard From him by now He promised he'd write When things settled down And send me money For a ticket when things got better And mama I guess He's just workin' hard And you know how Those cowboys are But it's been three weeks And I ain't got a letter I'm in love and he's in Dallas I'm as blue as a girl can be Is he down there thinkin' about my love Or driftin' away from me? And I'm in love and he's in Dallas And it's not the way it's s'pposed to be Can a promise reach from Texas All the way to Tennesee? Well I'm in love and he's in Dallas I'm as blue as a girl can be Can a promise reach from Texas All the way to Tennesee?
