Dallas
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
If you ever get the chance to go to Dallas
Take it from me pass it by
'Cause you'll only sing the blues down in Dallas
Take it from me don't go and cry
Chorus:
And I'm leavin' this town as soon as I can
Gonna stop off for awhile and see my woman
People do you wrong down in Dallas
I know well they've done it to me
Stealin' all your bread they're so callous
I know well just look and see
Chorus:
Oh and I'm leavin' this town as soon as I can
Gonna stop off for awhile and see my woman
And people like me just can't be free
The promo man won't let us be-ee
If the people who knew could get away
I'm real sure they'd leave today
(instrumental)
Yeah, now come on down and lose your mental balance
Look at me half crazy now
Oh, talkin' to chairs is strange and I know it
Look at me I'm doin' it know
Chorus:
Yeah, and I'm leavin' this town as soon as I can
Gonna stop off for awhile and see my woman
Yeah, leavin' this town as soon as I can
Gonna stop off for awhile and see my woman
Whoa, leavin' this town as soon as I can
Gonna stop off for awhile and see my woman
(Houston...)
(Houston...)
(Houston...)
(Houston
