texas dance hall girl
She's the first one on the dance floor when the music starts to play She's the first to buy the band around the drink She's just out to have a good time, dances every set they play And she don't care what anybody thinks She's a sad and lonely Texas dance hall girl Who's just tryin' to bring a smile to this old world But behind the smile a broken heart, lives in another world She's a sad and lonely Texas dance hall girl No one really knows the story that there's an old love on her mind 'Cause the certain song brings teardrops to her eyes But they only dare a minute then she's laughing one more time With what little happiness a teardrop buys She's a sad and lonely Texas dance hall girl Who's just tryin' to bring a smile to this old world But behind the smile a broken heart, lives in another world She's a sad and lonely Texas dance hall girl She's just a sad and lonely Texas dance hall girl
