Lyrics

VERSE
They say a wild Texas woman is a story can’t be told
Some might be Texas had, but they’re way too hard to hold
All you need is to be lucky to run across this kind
But you may wonder which kind of luck
When she gets through with your mind

CHORUS
You might Texas have ’em
But you can’t Texas hold ’em
’Cause just when you think you’ve got one
She’ll be gone when the mornin’ comes

VERSE
Now that you know that some Texas women
Might be had but can’t be held
There’s somethin’ else you should know
To remain alive and well
It’s true, no one can help you
Let me make this clear as a bell
Texas heaven becomes Texas hell
If you should kiss and tell

Repeat CHORUS/SOLO/VERSE
Well, I’d love to Texas hold one, but if that cannot be
Then I’d rather Texas have one
Than not have played the game to see
So when you find a Texas woman
That you might have but you can’t hold
Be content to have her while you can
Or throw in your cards and fold

Repeat CHORUS/SOLO/Repeat Chorus (2x)/TAG
Yeah, hold ’em’s just a game
But if you try the real thing
You may never be the same
