Amarillo Highway Songtext
I'm a high straight in Plainview, side bet in Idalou
And a fresh deck in New Deal
Yeah, some call me high hand, some call me low hand
I'm holding what I am, the wheel

I'm the panhandling, manhandling, post holing
High rolling, Dust Bowling daddy
And I ain't got no blood in my veins
Just got them four lanes of hard Amarillo highway
Well, I don't wear no Stetson, but I'm willing to bet, son
That I'm big a Texan as you are
There's a girl in her bare feet 'sleep on the back seat
That trunk's full of Pearl and Lone Star

I'm a panhandling, manhandling, post holing
High rolling, Dust Bowling daddy
And I ain't got no blood in my veins
Just got them four lanes of hard Amarillo highway

So gonna hop outta bed, pop a pill in my head
Yeah, bust the hub for the Golden Spread under bluе skies
Gonna stuff my hide behind somе Powerglide
And get some southern fried back in my eyes

I'm a panhandling, manhandling, post holing
High rolling, Dust Bowling daddy
And I ain't got no blood in my veins
Just got them four lanes of hard Amarillo highway
And close I'll ever get to Heaven is making speed up old 87
That hard ass Amarillo highway
