Fort Worth

Oh, Fort Worth, you stole her
Them stockyards now hold her
With the hands of a cowboy she don't know
Well, I'm down in Houston
Just blues pickin'
A song full of unspoken words

Well, it's a Friday night and there ain't no doubt
She's headed west of Dallas, stockyards bound
With her favorite bells on and a sparkle in her smile
Cold heart she's been hangin' on for a while

Well, that darlin' is about to turn some feelings in that cowboy crowd
Take a chance and dance to a song he picked out
Might even find one to hang on for a while
Knowing her

Oh, I know that heartache pretty swell
By nine o'clock, she'll be deep in that cheap well
And when that buzz hit her, oh, just right
Lord have mercy, there's her wild side

Oh, I'm just prayin' I can make it to a south Texas sunrise
Without drowning myself with these banquets on her
Lord, just take her off my mind

Fort Worth, you stole her
Them stockyards now hold her
With the hands of a cowboy she don't know
Oh, I'm down in Houston
Just blues pickin' a song full of unspoken words

Oh, I should've let her walk out long before
That winter came in rollin', rollin' like a storm
And her cold heart has me shivering
Knowing she wants more
I'm left with her memory and tear drops on the floor

Well, I know that girls gone, gone as can be
Runnin' 'round those stockyards with no thoughts of me
Searchin' for something she won't find
My love no more, no more longer mine

Oh, Fort Worth, you stole her
