By now she's probably in between Memphis and Little Rock
And I'm sittin' 'tween empty barstools with an open tab throwin' back shots
While she's cryin' drivin' down the highway
Bartender slides another one my way ay
Whiskey whispers she's comin' back
But I already know that

She's headin' back to Houston
Tennessee ain't on her mind
She's movin' back to her momma's
Guess it means that she meant it this time
By the time she hits Texas she'll be too far gone
Yeah she's already movin' on
What's done is done
She's headin' back to Houston

By now she's throwin' that picture from the dashboard out the window
And I'm sittin' in this empty house all alone
Prayin' she'll come home

But she's headin' back to Houston
Tennessee ain't on her mind
She's movin' back to her momma's
Guess it means that she meant it this time
By the time she hits Texas she'll be too far gone
Yeah she's already movin' on
What's done is done
She's headin' back to Houston
Headin' back to Houston

By now she's Lone Star long gone
But I'm holdin' on

'Cause she's headin' back to Houston
Tennessee ain't on her mind
She's movin' back to her momma's
I guess that means she meant it this time
By the time she hits Texas she'll be too far gone
Yeah she's already movin' on
What's done is done
She's headin' back to Houston
She's headin' back to Houston
She's headin' back to Houston
Headin' back to Houston
