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
