Dallas
Dallas Nights: A Rich City's Allure and Deception
Lyrics
Did you ever see Dallas from a DC-9 at night?
Reflecting on the experience of seeing Dallas from a DC-9 aircraft during the nighttime.
Well Dallas is a jewel, oh yeah, Dallas is a beautiful sight
Describing Dallas as a precious and beautiful city.
And Dallas is a jungle but Dallas gives a beautiful light
Characterizing Dallas as a complex and challenging environment that radiates a captivating light.
Did you ever see Dallas from a DC-9 at night?
Repeating the earlier reflection on the nighttime view of Dallas from a DC-9.
Well, Dallas is a woman who will walk on you when you're down
Personifying Dallas as a woman who may be unsupportive when one is down but desirable when things are going well.
But when you are up, she's the kind you want to take around
Highlighting the dual nature of Dallas, suggesting that it can be both challenging and attractive depending on one's circumstances.
But Dallas ain't a woman to help you get your feet on the ground
Indicating that Dallas is not supportive in times of struggle and may not help someone establish stability.
And Dallas is a woman who will walk on you when you're down
Reiterating the idea of Dallas being a woman who may take advantage when one is down.
Well, I came into Dallas with the bright lights on my mind,
Recalling the speaker's arrival in Dallas with a focus on the bright lights of the city.
But I came into Dallas with a dollar and a dime
Noting the speaker's arrival in Dallas with minimal financial resources (a dollar and a dime).
Well Dallas is a rich man with a death wish in his eyes
Describing Dallas as a wealthy man with a self-destructive inclination in his gaze.
A steel and concrete soul with a warm hearted love disguise
Depicting Dallas as a person with a tough exterior but a concealed warm and loving nature.
A rich man who tends to believe in his own lies
Suggesting that the wealthy man in Dallas tends to believe in his own falsehoods or illusions.
Yeah Dallas is a rich man with a death wish in his eyes
Reiterating the description of Dallas as a rich man with a self-destructive desire.
Well, I came into Dallas with the bright lights on my mind,
Repeating the earlier arrival in Dallas, emphasizing the presence of bright lights.
But I came into Dallas with a dollar and a dime
Reiterating the speaker's arrival with limited financial resources (a dollar and a dime).
Did you ever see Dallas from a DC-9 at night?
Recalling the experience of seeing Dallas from a DC-9 aircraft at night.
Well Dallas is a jewel, oh yeah, Dallas is a beautiful sight
Repeating the positive qualities of Dallas as a jewel and a beautiful sight.
And Dallas is a jungle but Dallas gives a beautiful light
Reiterating the duality of Dallas as both a challenging jungle and a source of beautiful light.
Did you ever see Dallas from a DC-9 at night?
Closing by echoing the initial reflection on seeing Dallas from a DC-9 at night.
