Fort Worth

(Album: Until I Found You - 2019)

Fort Worth you stole her
Them stockyards now hold her
With the hands of a cowboy she don't know
I'm down in Houston
Just blues pickin
A song full of unspoken words

Well it's a Friday night & there ain't no doubt
She's headed west of Dallas stockyards bound
With her favorite bells on and a sparkle in her smile
Cold heart she's been hangin on for a while
That darlin is about to turn felts in that cowboy crowd
Take a chance n dance to a song he picked out
Might even find one to hang on for a while
Knowing her

I know that heartache pretty swell
By nine o clock she'll be deep in that cheap well
When that buzz hits her or o just right
Lord have mercy
There's her wild side
I'm just prayin I can make it to a south Texas sunrise without drowning my self with these banquets on ice
All I'm prayin is lord
Take her off my mind

Fort Worth you stole her
Them stockyards now hold her
With the hands of a cowboy she don't know
I'm down in Houston
Just blues pickin
A song full of unspoken words

I shoulda let her walk out long before
The winter came in rollin rollin like a storm
And her cold heart has me shivering knowing she wants more
Now I'm left with her memory and some tear drops on the floor

Well I know that girls gone gone as can be
Running round those stock yards with no thoughts of me
Searchin for something she won't find
No my love no more no more longer mine

Fort Worth you stole her
