CHRIS LEDOUX
"Dallas Days And Fort Worth Nights"
(Kris Bergsnes / Gordon Eatherly)

Well, under the skies of old Big D, well, 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 aboard his pickup truck and barrels on out of the chute

[Chorus:]
Dallas days and Fort Worth nights
Well, 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

Well, 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:]
Dallas days and Fort Worth nights
Well, 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

[Instrumental]

[Chorus:]
Dallas days and Fort Worth nights
Well, 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

[Outro:]
Well, 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
