INTRO
When your money's gone, folks have turned you down
And you wander 'round just like a hound, a lonesome hound, then you
Start to say, "Let me go away from this old town, this awful town."
There's a place I know, folks won't pass me by
Dallas, Texas, that's the town I cry, oh hear me cry, and I'm
Goin' back, goin' back to stay there 'til I die, until I die
When I got a snort, clothes I had to spare
Sold 'em all, to pay my railroad fare, my railroad fare, just to
Come back there, ridin' in a Pullman parlor chair, a parlor chair
Sent a telegram, this is what I said:
"Baby, bring a cold towel for my head, my achin' head, I've got the
Dallas blues, and your lovin' man is almost dead, he's almost dead."
I've got the Dallas blues, and the Main Street heart disease, it's buzzin' 'round
I got the Dallas blues, and the Main Street heart disease, it's buzzin' 'round
Buzzin' 'round my head like a swarm of little honey bees, a honey bee
I wonder if my sweet lovin' babe, she'lll wait for me, she'll wait for me
I wonder if my sweet lovin' babe, she'll wait for me, she'll wait for me, maybe
Someone else stole the juicy peaches off my tree, right off my tree
