Lyrics
Fort Worth neon shinin' bright
Fort Worth's vibrant neon lights are shining brightly.
Pretty lights red and blue
Beautiful lights in red and blue colors.
They shut down all the honky tonks tonight
All the honky tonks or bars are closed for the night.
Say a prayer or two, if they only knew
There's a hope or wish for protection or guidance, a sense of uncertainty.
You used to say the highway was your home
In the past, you claimed the road as your home.
But we both know that ain't true
But it's acknowledged that this claim isn't accurate.
It's just the only place a man can go
The road seems like the only option when direction is unknown.
When he don't know where he's travelin' to
Traveling without a clear destination.
Colorado's always clean and healin'
Colorado is serene and rejuvenating.
Tennessee the spring is green and cool
Tennessee in spring is lush and refreshing.
But it never really was your kind of town
None of these places felt like where you truly belonged.
So you went around with the Fort Worth blues
Thus, you ended up feeling the blues in Fort Worth.
Somewhere out across the Great Divide
Referencing a distant place where clarity might be found.
Where the sky is wide and the clouds are few
In a wide expanse with fewer distractions, finding direction becomes clearer.
A man can see his way clear to the light
Guidance and clarity can be found by holding on and persevering.
Just hold on tight, that's all you got to do
A reminder to stay resilient in challenging times.
They say in Texas the weather's always changin'
Emphasizing Texas' unpredictable weather and the novelty change brings.
One thing change will bring is something new
Change brings opportunities for something different.
Houston really ain't too bad a town
Despite its merits, Houston wasn't the right fit, hence staying with the blues in Fort Worth.
So you hung around with the Fort Worth Blues
Continuing to feel the blues in Fort Worth.
There's a full moon over Galway Bay tonight
Depiction of a picturesque scene with a full moon over Galway Bay.
Silver light on green and blue
The moonlight casting a serene glow over the landscape.
Every place I travel to find
Searching for traces or signs of your presence in places traveled.
Some kind of sign that you've been through
Seeking some evidence of your existence in different locations.
Amsterdam us always good for grievin'
Amsterdam is a place where grieving or reflection seems to happen.
London never fails to leave me blue
London tends to evoke feelings of sadness.
Paris really ain't my kind of town
Paris doesn't resonate with personal preferences or comfort.
So I walked around with the Fort Worth blues
Feeling the familiar blues while wandering through Paris.
