Fort Worth Blues - Guy Clark
Fort Worth neon shinin' bright Pretty lights red and blue They shut down all the honky tonks tonight Say a prayer or two, if they only knew You used to say the highway was your home But we both know that ain't true It's just the only place a man can go When he don't know where he's travelin' to Colorado's always clean and healin' Tennessee the spring is green and cool But it never really was your kind of town So you went around with the Fort Worth blues Somewhere out across the Great Divide Where the sky is wide and the clouds are few A man can see his way clear to the light Just hold on tight, that's all you got to do They say in Texas the weather's always changin' One thing change will bring is something new Houston really ain't too bad a town So you hung around with the Fort Worth Blues There's a full moon over Galway Bay tonight Silver light on green and blue Every place I travel to find Some kind of sign that you've been through Amsterdam us always good for grievin' London never fails to leave me blue Paris really ain't my kind of town So I walked around with the Fort Worth blues
