It's 1200 miles from Palm Springs to Texas
|
But tonight it's right next door
|
For a week each year
|
It's the old frontier
|
That's what brings them here, western atmosphere
|
You can't tell the dudes from real riding cowboys
|
When they sashay across the floor
|
There's the circus means, lots and lots of thrills
|
Folks from Houston yeah, and from Beverly Hills
|
Clowning from the Shamrock right to the Almiera door
|
You'll find it's 1200 miles from Palm Springs to Texas
|
But tonight it's right next door
|
|
Do you see that parade
|
Do you hear that parade
|
Coming down Palm Canyon Drive
|
But if you see that parade
|
Come on and cheer that parade if you're 8 or 85
|
Who's that riding up ahead
|
Why it's the govenor of Texas someone said
|
What's he doing up this way
|
Why it Palm Springs and Texas day
|
|
Ah, you can't tell the dudes from real riding cowboys
|
When they sashay across the floor
|
Folks are trading in all their Cadillacs
|
For those pinto ponies and cowhide slacks
|
And there's no one left down at Neiman Marcus' store
|
Because it's 1200 miles from Palm Spring to Texas
|
But tonight it's right next door
|
