    That’s not old man status. Not knowing about this artist or song is a mark of good taste.

    Here’s the chorus:

    She’s from Texas, I can tell by the way He’s two-steppin’ ‘round the room And judgin’ by the smile that’s written on his face There’s nothin’ I can do It doesn’t take a crystal ball to see A cowboy always finds a way to leave Drinkin’ Jack all by myself He’s choosin’ Texas, I can tell

    I’m grateful I’ve never heard it because from reading the lyrics, she’s pining for a total loser. On top of all that, there’s even an official remix by Drake.

    Edit: fixed spelling

      Pro tip: two spaces at the end of a line create a line break without a new paragraph.

      She’s from Texas, I can tell by the way
      He’s two-steppin’ ‘round the room
      And judgin’ by the smile that’s written on his face
      There’s nothin’ I can do
      It doesn’t take a crystal ball to see
      A cowboy always finds a way to leave
      Drinkin’ Jack all by myself
      He’s choosin’ Texas, I can tell

      Literally ever country song could be AI generated and not a single speck of quality would be lost.

      a song isnt bad just because the singer is pining for a loser. lots of people do that in real life, why cant a song do that
