Lyrics

I was born down in Dallas
Raised up in the city of the wind
Yeah, I could spend a month of Sundays
Talkin' 'bout the places I've been
Yeah, I played the blues in England, I visit the Queen
She really dug my style, but Queen is not my thing
I'm goin' back to Dallas
Living in the palace of the king
Hey, they wanted me in Russia
But Moscow was much too cold
Yeah, I could have played down in Denmark
But the girls was much too old
Yeah, let me tell you something funny
I don't know what they say
I can't find a Chitlins Pizza for any price I pay
I'm goin' back to Dallas
Living in the palace of the king
Oh, living in the palace of the king
Yeah, I'm living in the palace
Give me some service, yeah
I can make you smile, every note I play
I can make you happy playin' the blues my way
I'm goin' back to Dallas
Living in the palace of the king
Yeah, I'm living in the palace of the king
Yeah, I'm living in the palace
Never had service quite the same, yeah
Been around the world, I have many things
Nothing can make me satisfied but these blues I sing
I'm goin' back to Dallas
Living in the palace of the king
Yeah, I'm living in the palace of the king
Whoa, I'm living in the palace of the king
Yeah, I'm living in the palace of the king
Yes, I'm living in the palace of the king
Yeah, I'm living in the palace of the king
Yeah, I'm living
