Forth Worth Blues

Guy Clark

    Continues after the ad

    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
