Chip Taylor
Fort Worth Thursday Night




Jenny skipped Biology - stole Carrie's delc of cards
Went to David's east wing dorm to play strip poker until dark
While across the hall old Robert Earl played one on his guitar
'Bout an ordinary Ft. Worth Thursday night

With some hoemboys on the jukebox - and a pool cue in his hands
Marilyn Monroe learned up against him now and then
While Jamie got a lap dance from Plano's Princess Diane
Just an ordinary Ft. Worth Thursday night

Just an ordinary Ft. Worth Thursday night in ths college town
Linin' up tequilas - Shiner Bach to wash 'em down
Outside a sea of uniforms - lookin' for a fight
Just an ordinary Ft. Worth Thursday night

Dillon's from North Dakota - some Mohegan reservation
Alice she's from nowhere - so no one asks the question
If in class we're learin' somethin' - we've a further education
on an ordinary Ft. Worth Thursday night

Where we drink and rock and cuss and shock - and test each other's limits
And we ain't afraid to shake that boat - to find out just what's in it
And we ain't ashamed we lost the war .........next time we'll win it
Just an ordinary Ft. Worth Thursday night

Dear daddy - send money - my books is old and worn
I need new ones - just a few ones.... 30 hundreds 'll git it done
Dear momma, sweet momma - I'm learnin' so much here
If it's O.K. with you and daddy - I'd like to stay just one more year
