Lyrics
Cold Fort Worth beer, just ain’t no good for jealous
I’ve tried it night, after night
You’re in someone else’s arms in Dallas
Does Fort Worth ever cross your mind?
Darlin’ while you’re busy, burnin’ bridges
Burn one for me, if you get time
‘Cause good memories, don’t fade so easy
Does Fort Worth ever cross your mind?
You left me here, to be with him in Dallas
And I know it hurts you at the time
Well I wonder now, if it makes a difference
Does Fort Worth ever cross your mind?
You left me here, to be with him in Dallas
And I know it hurts you, at the time
Well I wonder now, if it makes a difference
Does Fort Worth ever cross your mind?
Does Fort Worth ever cross your mind?
