Dallas

HE WAS MY DALLAS HE KNEW WITHOUT TALKIN’
TO TAKE ME OUT WALKIN AND GIVE ME MY SPACE
HE LIKED WILD HORSES HE’D RIDE WITH NO SADDLE
AND NO ONE BUT DALLAS COULD RIDE ‘EM THAT WAY

I TOOK UP WITH HIM AND LEFT MY WHOLE FAMILY
ALL MY FRIENDS TOLD ME HE’D LEAVE ME BEHIND
WITH BOTH MY EARS RINGIN TO SOUNDS OF THEIR WARNINGS
IN HIS OLD RED PICKUP I FOUND PIECE OF MIND

DON’T TRUST THE SMILE OF A RODEO RIDER
MY DADDY TOLD ME WHIN I TELEPHONED
HE’LL FIND WAYS OF HOLDING YOU TIGHTER AND TIGHTER
AND SOMEDAY HE’LL LEAVE YOU, GO OFF ON HIS OWN

BUT NO ONE CAN TELL ME I WASN’T BORN LUCKY
WHAT DALLAS HAS LEFT ME THEY CAN’T TAKE AWAY
DALLAS IS GONE NOW AND I’M A LONE COWGIRL
I’D GIVE MY WHOLE LIFETIME TO SEE HIM TODAY

I’D GIVE MY WHOLE LIFETIME TO SEE HIM TODAY


so long my Dallas goodbye (you're a long ride away)
repeat
