Northeast Texas Women
[Verse 1]
Say if you're south of Oklahoma
East of New Mexico
West of Louisiana
Where Papa Charles always go
We got a little place we call Texas
Where the women just grow on trees
Right there for the pickin' good, buddy
Just as easy as a man could please

[Chorus]
Run, take a hold
You gon' get young 'fore you get old
Those Texas ladies are Texas gold
Kisses sweeter than cactus
Take no practice to love, yeah

[Verse 2]
Now there east of Amarillo
A little south of old Dime Box
You can find a Cinderella, yeah, or a genuine Goldilocks
If you don't like no love attachments
If your taste in women gets strange
You could probably find some things to live on down in old La Grange

[Chorus]
You'd run, tell the world
You gotta have a Lone Star girl
With her cast iron curls
Her aluminum dimples
'Cause she's so simple to love, yeah
[Verse 3]
Now she's probably in Dallas
Maybe down in old Cowtown
I've heard 'em tell Texas women
Beat the others lyin' down
I just thought I might tell you
In case you were unaware
'Bout those northeast Texas women
With their cotton candy hair

[Chorus]
You run, dig a hole
You gon' get young 'fore you get old
Texas women are Texas gold
Ah, they're sweeter than cactus, woah

[Bridge]
Easy to love, yeah
Easy to love
Woah, easy to love, mmm

[Chorus]
You run, tell the world
How you'll get Lone star girls
With their cast iron curls
She's sweeter than cactus
And easy to love
