Under the skies of old "Big D"

He works a nine-to-five

Bending steel and driving nails

By phone in a suit and tie

He fights traffic in his Mercedes

To put on his cowboy boots

Then he climbs on board his pick-up truck

And barrels on out of the chute



CHORUS

Dallas days and Fort Worth nights

All day long he sets his sights

On ice cold beer and neon lights

From sky high beams

To bucking machines

He's a single man with a double life

Dallas days and Fort Worth nights



Yeah he's headed honky-tonkin'

To a place they call Cowtown

He's gonna hit the floor hip-hoppin'

Just spinnin' when the sun goes down

He'll buy a drink for a cowgirl

Hopin' to quench her thirst

One that'll take him to heaven

And bring him back down to earth



CHORUS 2x



All day long he sets his sights

On ice cold beer and neon lights

Dallas days and Fort Worth nights

Dallas days and Fort Worth nights
