About this song worksheet
A printable ESL song worksheet for “Choosin' Texas” by Ella Langley, for Level 3 (intermediate) learners, with a focus on present continuous. Students listen and fill 14 gaps in the lyrics, then discuss the song.
Discussion questions
- The narrator watches the man she loves choose someone else without saying a word. Why do you think she stays silent, and what does that silence tell us about how she feels?
- The song uses place names — Tennessee, Texas, Abilene, the Lone Star State — as symbols of identity. What does it suggest about people when they feel a deep connection to where they come from?
- Have you ever realised too late that the signs of something ending were there all along? How did that feel, and would you do anything differently now?
