Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Did you ever see Dallas from a DC-9 at night?
Well, Dallas is a jewel, 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?
[Verse 2]
Well, Dallas is a woman who'll walk on you when you're down
But when you are up, she's the kind you wanna take around
But Dallas ain't a woman to help you get your feet on the ground
And Dallas is a woman who'll walk on you when you're down
[Verse 3]
Well, I came into Dallas with the bright lights on my mind
But I came into Dallas with a dollar and a dime
[Verse 4]
Well, Dallas is a rich man with a death wish in his eyes
A steel and concrete soul with a warm-hearted love disguise
A rich man who tends to believe in his own lies
Yeah, Dallas is a rich man with a death wish in his eyes
[Verse 5]
Well, I came into Dallas with the bright lights on my mind
But I came into Dallas with a dollar and a dime
[Verse 6]
Did you ever see Dallas from a DC-9 at night?
Well, Dallas is a jewel, 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?
