Here I am in Dallas,
where in the hell are you?
I came here to meet you,
like I said I'd do.
I have a cowboy hat
and I'm picking up drugs,
done made a fool of you,
bop, bop, bop, bop.
Here I am in Dallas,
where in the hell are you?
I said good -bye to
all of my friends
down at Tootsie Bar
Packed up my Alabama suitcase
and flew it in the car
Canceled my subscription to
the Music City News
Cause you made me an offer
that I could not refuse
Oh yeah
Here I am in Dallas, woman, where are you?
I came here to meet you
Like I said I'd do
Have a cowboy hat and a pick -up truck
Done made a fool of you
Bop, bop, bop, here I am in Dallas
Woman, where are you
Now listen to this
I walked into a bar room
And I laid her picture down
And I asked the guy behind the bar
If he'd seen her around
He said, I don't recall the name
But I've seen the face before
And I swear I heard him laughin'
When Waylon Jennings
walked out the door
Out of his mind
What got me here to Dallas
Sure has got me down
Somethin' here in Dallas
Honey turned your little head around
Here I am in Dallas
Woman, where are you?
I came here to meet you
Like I said I did
I have a cowboy hat
And a pick -em -up truck
So may the fool abuse
Here I am in Dallas,
a woman's hurryin'
Yeah! You ain't gonna
pull yours off
if you ain't got enough hair
to pull it off.
No hair to pull
You wanna do leavin'?
Oh, I'll do that, that suits me.
You check with Richard on that?
Ha, ha, ha. ś many times I
told you I was leavin' ś
And oh so many times how I tried ś
But sayin' you're leavin'
so much easier ś
Than leavin' and sayin' goodbye ś
Every time I start to go
I wouldn't get ten feet
I'd come runnin' back
like a runaway child
That's afraid to cross the street
And my mind might tell my lips
to say it's over
Say it, say it, say it
My heart would only say it's a lie
Say it, say
Sayin' you're leavin' so much easier
And leaving and saying goodbye
Yeah, every time I start to go
I wouldn't get 10 feet
I'd come runnin' back
like a runaway child
That's afraid to cross the street
And my mind might tell my lips
to say it's over
My heart would only say that's a lie
Just sayin' you're leavin'
so much easier
Than leavin' and sayin' goodbye
Leaving and saying good -bye
Wow, I've got cool now.
I done got wet all the
way through here.
Perspiration,
that's what they call that.
Where I come from over
in Louisiana,
they call it sweat. Yeah. Wow.
Oh, I had a request while I go.
Somebody sent me a little piece
of paper up here.
If I can remember this tune.
Give me a B flat, Richard.
Or just give me a B
and I'll flatten it out by myself.
