I moved to Texas on a whim
To see if I could fit in
And I felt like a proper lady
Before long I met a man
I fell in love, you understand
He was all I could think of

Oh Austin, you were my first lover
Why'd you say you love me if I meant nothing to ya'
Oh Austin, you were undcover
Why'd you say you love me and then find another

I moved to Kansas to move on
I drank whiskey until dawn
But I miss that lovin'
I went back to find that man and God damn
He was with another

Oh Austin, you were my first lover
Why'd you say you love me if I meant nothing to ya'
Oh Austin, you were undcover
Why'd you say you love me and then find another

Don't you say my name 'cause I'll be saying yours
Ever since you walked out the door
This is what they meant when I heard it said
That you can't come home again
I moved back home, settle down
Got a job in my home town
And I felt like a bruised woman
Before long I began to think
That man will be the death of me
So I'm gonna kill him

Oh Austin, you were my first lover
Why'd you say you love me if I meant nothing to ya'
Oh Austin, you were undcover
Why'd you say you love me and then you find another

Oh Austin, you were my first lover
Why'd you say you love me if I meant nothing to ya'
Oh Austin, you were undcover
Why'd you say you love me and then find another
