Went north to find his fortune
beneath the New York skyline
Now he's lost inside that
Sure does miss his cowboy boots
He's all walled up on Wall Street
He's craving Lone Star beer
He's dreamin' about dancin'
over sawdust -covered floors
Twin fiddles in Manhattan,
well, he's never seen that happen
He's all walled up on Wall Street
He's got this old red pickup truck
in a warehouse in New Jersey
Hell, the damn thing brought him here
It's been faithful through the years
And if he does decide to go back home
The truck knows the road to find
And he's craving lonesome beer
He's dreaming about dancing
over sawdust -covered floors
Twin Piddles and Manhattan,
well he's never seen that happen
He's all walled up on Wall Street
Say, have you heard he disappeared
Seven -O says I might have been crazy
took it over to New Jersey
Gassed up that old red pickup truck
lit out for the borderline
He's gone back to lone star beer
He's goin' back to dancin'
over sawdust covered floors
Twin fiddles at the palace,
one of those summer nights in Dallas
You can't get that on Wall Street,
He's got a Texas state of mind.
They got a Texas state of mind.
