Jeannie C. Riley - The Back Side Of Dallas Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • On the back side of Dallas in the dingy bar on a wornout stool she sits
  • And her trembling hand thumbeles for another kingside filter cigarette
  • She blows a puff of smoke then settles back and look across that light blue haze
  • And from the back side of Dallas her mind goes driftin' back to other days
  • Meet me in Dallas on June the 23rd his letter read
  • On the greyhound of this big town she came to be with him just like he said
  • Then suddenly he left her for reasons that she still don't understand
  • And on the back side of Dallas a girl must turn her way as best as she can
  • It's a long way to Dallas for a small twon girl from the middle of Tennessee
  • A tenth grade education won't get you no kinda job here in big D
  • Hunger pains and prides are things that just don't go hand in hand for long
  • And on the back side of Dallas a hungry small town girl can't find a home
  • On the back side of Dallas nervously she takes another pill
  • On the back side of Dallas tonight like other nights she drinks her fill
  • She pays the man behind the bar and leave the change for twenty dollar bill
  • If you're ever feelin' lonesome man you want to find someone who feels the same
  • She's on the back side of Dallas where every taxi driver knows her name
  • She's on the back side of Dallas where every taxi driver knows her name
