Just outside of Fort worth Texas one ninetynine There's a rundown strip of old night clubs Been there for a very long time Head on out towards Jacksboro Till you see that neon flashing Man they got it all there If you're looking for some action They got the craps game at the Black Cat Strip tease at the Duce Over at the Skyline It's always loud and loose Hey the winos bummin' Rich folks slummin' Watchout man 'cous the cops ain't going to The Jacksboro Highway Jacksboro Highway Jacksboro Highway There's always something going down You better watch your back boy
You better cover your bets The further down that road you go The rougher it's gonna get Remember that stabbing at the Peppermint lounge Broken gla** and Blood was on the ground You better forget every thing you see Even if it's murder in the first degree Out on the Jacksboro Highway Jacksboro Highway Jacksboro Highway There's always something going down Hey the winos bummin' Rich folks slummin' Watchout man 'cous the cops ain't going to The Jacksboro Highway Jacksboro Highway Jacksboro Highway There's always something going down
