Why Dallas

I know the stars are bright

Above that little Texas town

I bet I'm nowhere near her mind right now

Oh but I can't say the same

It's been thundering and rain

I'm so full of all this liquor

And I'm drowning in this pain

I'm wonderin'

Why Dallas did you take her from me?

Everything was fine out here in Nashville, Tennessee

We went from chasing Amarillo

Now I'm chasing memories

I'm wondering why did you take her from me?

If I could see the ocean

I would pour it on my head

Float around this desert

Like a possum playing dead

Maybe I could drift back to her heart

And find the bed

Maybe she'll forget last night

And everything I said

I'm wonderin'

Why Dallas did you take her from me?

Everything was fine out on a beach here in Maui

We went from chasing Amarillo

Now I'm chasing memories

I'm wondering why did you take her from me

Come on play somethin'

Oh why Dallas did you take her from me?

Everything was perfect out here in Nashville, Tennessee

We went from chasing Amarillo

Now I'm chasing memories

I'm wondering why did you take her?

Roll my heart right up and break it?

Yeah, why did you take her from me?
