All my life
Miranda Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And Texas is a place I'd dearly love to be
But all my exes live in Texas
And that's why I hang my hat in Tennessee
Rosanna's down in Texarkana
Wanted me to push her broom
Sweet Eileen in Abilene
And Allison's in Galveston
Somehow lost her sanity
And Dimples who now lives in Temple's
Got the law looking for me
All my exes live in Texas
But Texas is a place I'd dearly love to be
But all my exes live in Texas
That's why I hang my hat in Tennessee
Play it boys
(Woo)
I remember that old Frio River
Where I learned to swim
But it brings to mind another time
That I wore my welcome thin
And by transcendental meditation
I go there each night
But I always come back to myself
Long before daylight
All my exes live in Texas (yes, they do)
And Texas is a place I'd dearly love to be
But all my exes live in Texas
Therefore I reside in Tennessee
Some folks think I'm hidin'
It's been rumored that I died
But I'm alive and well in Tennessee, yup (woo hoo)
(Thank you, thank you very much)
In Miranda Lambert's honky-tonk infused hit "All My Exes Live in Texas," she sings about how all of her ex-boyfriends reside in Texas, but due to that fact, she hangs her hat in Tennessee. The playful tone of the song is set by the use of the horn sections and snappy guitar riffs along with Miranda's twangy voice. She brings up each of her exes while also listing out the various cities in Texas they occupy, Rosanna in Texarkana, Sweet Eileen in Abilene, and Allison in Galveston.
She seems to have a love-hate relationship with Texas, as the state once meant so much to her that she wished to live there. Still, because of her past heartache and nostalgia, she cannot live there, and instead, she has found home in Tennessee. She sings about having good memories of swimming in Frio River and how she now visits the place through transcendental meditation to escape her current life. However, she knows that when daylight comes, she will be back in reality in Tennessee.

All my exes live in Texas
I used to have relationships with people in Texas
And Texas is a place I'd dearly love to be
I really like Texas
But all my exes live in Texas
But unfortunately, all of my past partners still live there
And that's why I hang my hat in Tennessee
So I moved to Tennessee to start fresh
Rosanna's down in Texarkana
One of my exes, Rosanna, lives in Texarkana
Wanted me to push her broom
She asked me to clean up after her
Sweet Eileen in Abilene
Another ex of mine, Eileen, lives in Abilene
She forgot I hung the moon
She used to think I was amazing, but not anymore
And Allison's in Galveston
Another ex, Allison, now lives in Galveston
Somehow lost her sanity
She may not be thinking clearly these days
And Dimples who now lives in Temple's
My ex, Dimples, now lives in Temple
Got the law looking for me
She may have told the police I did something wrong
That's why I hang my hat in Tennessee
I had to move away to escape my past
I remember that old Frio River
I have good memories of the Frio River
Where I learned to swim
It's where I learned how to swim
But it brings to mind another time
But it also reminds me of a time when things weren't good
That I wore my welcome thin
When people stopped welcoming me and grew tired of me being around
And by transcendental meditation
Through meditation that focuses on spirituality and self-awareness
I go there each night
I think about that time every night
But I always come back to myself
But I always end up focusing on who I am now
Long before daylight
And I do this until it's time to wake up
Therefore I reside in Tennessee
So I live in Tennessee now
Some folks think I'm hidin'
Some people think I'm avoiding my past
It's been rumored that I died
There are rumors that I'm not alive anymore
But I'm alive and well in Tennessee, yup (woo hoo)
But I'm actually doing well and happy where I am now
