"Was Fort Worth Worth It?" lyrics

"Was Fort Worth Worth It?"

Was Fort Worth worth it? Did the Stockyards turn us
Into somethin' to where we should be ashamed?
Was Fort Worth worth it? Did it serve any purpose
But to cause a lotta people a lotta pain?

I only come to town for the bronc I'd drawn to ride
But the Cowtown cobblestone really hung me up this time
Now you come to mind every time they drive those longhorns by
Here on the cowboy side of the I-35

Was Fort Worth worth it? Did the Stockyards turn us
Into somethin' to where we should be ashamed?
Was Fort Worth worth it? Did it serve any purpose
But to cause a lotta people a lotta pain?
Was Fort Worth worth it? Did it serve any purpose
But to cause a lotta people that we love a lotta pain?

Trouble like you was the last thing I thought I'd find
Janglin' the spur of the moment in the neon light
But now you come to mind every time they drive those longhorns by
Here on the cowboy side of the I-35

Was Fort Worth worth it? Did the Stockyards turn us
Into somethin' to where we should be ashamed?
Was Fort Worth worth it? Did it serve any purpose
But to cause a lotta people a lotta pain?

Was Fort Worth worth it? Did the Stockyards turn us
Into somethin' to where we should be ashamed?
Was Fort Worth worth it? Did it serve any purpose
But to cause a lotta people a lotta pain?
Was Fort Worth worth it? Did it serve any purpose
But to cause a lotta people that we love a lotta pain?
