The Flatlanders - Dallas lyrics

(Jimmie Dale Gilmore) Did you ever see Dallas from a DC-9 at night Well Dallas is a j**el, oh yeah Dallas is a beautiful sight And Dallas is a jungle but Dallas gives a beautiful light Did you ever see Dallas from a DC-9 at night Well Dallas is a woman who will walk on you when you're down But when you are u, she's the kind you want to take around But Dallas ain't a woman to help you get your feet on the ground And Dallas is a woman who will walk on you when you're down (Chorus) Well I came into Dallas with the bright lights on my mind But I came into Dallas with a dollar and a dime Well Dallas is a rich man with a d**h wish in his eye A steel and concrete soul and a warm hearted love disguise A rich man who tends to believe in his own lies Dallas is a rich man with a d**h wish in his eye (Chorus) Did you ever see Dallas from a DC-9 at night Well Dallas is a j**el, oh yeah Dallas is a beautiful sight And Dallas is a jungle but Dallas gives a beautiful light Did you ever see Dallas from a DC-9 at night
