Texas State Highway 144 (SH 144) is a state highway that runs from Meridian to Granbury in central Texas.

SH 144 begins at an intersection with SH 22 in Meridian. The route travels northwest to Walnut Springs before turning in a more northerly direction. It enters Glen Rose, where it has a one-mile concurrency with US 67. After separating from US 67, the highway resumes its northward journey to Granbury, where it intersects the US 377 bypass. The SH 144 designation ends at an intersection with Bus. US 377 in central Granbury.

SH 144 was designated on March 17, 1930 from Glen Rose to Meridian. On July 12, 1933, it extended to Brandon's Bridge. On October 9, 1934, it was rerouted west to Santo. On July 15, 1935, everything north of Glen Rose was cancelled. The section from Granbury to Glen Rose was restored on September 22, 1936. By 1939, the section from Granbury to Santo was cancelled. An alignment of the route in Glen Rose was previously designated Spur 216 before being combined with SH 144 in 1949.
