And I’m vacuuming the floor. I’m moving on to Dallas Cause I don’t love you anymore. Thought you had my number? Well, don’t bother making that call Cause the phone’s already in the car, And I ain’t missing you at all. By the time I hit Georgetown, I’ll stop being your clown Cause the river I cried for you Carried me right on out of town. My tears will be spent, My cheeks dry by Temple, And when I’m smiling in the sunlight, I won’t be thinking of your dimples. And when I near the edge of Lorena, I won’t stop in at that honky-tonk. I won’t need a drink or two, And I won’t long to hear sad country songs. I’ll speed right on through Waco Without even stopping for gas Cause each mile between us Is proof that our time has passed. And that long, dry stretch of land Between Hillsboro and my new home Won’t bring you back into my mind As I watch those lonely horses roam. And if you should see a wide stream of blood Running right up I-35, Don’t follow it to my front door, baby Cause there’s no way that wound is mine.
