G Iʼm a high straight in Plainview G A side bet in Idalou G C Anʼ a fresh deck in Mobile D Yeah some call me high handed D Some call me low handed D G But Iʼm holdinʼ what I am the wheel Chorus: G ʼCause Iʼm panhandlinʼ manhandlinʼ G C Post holinʼ hugh rollinʼ dust bowlinʼ Daddy D I ainʼt got no blood in my veins D I just got them four lanes D G Of hard Amarillo Highway I donʼt wear no Stetson But Iʼm willinʼ to bet son That Iʼm as big a Texan as you are Thereʼs a girl in her bare feet Assleep on the back seat And the trunkʼs full of Pearl beer and Lone Star Chorus. Gonna hop outta bed Pop a pill in my head Bust a hub for the Golden Spread Under Blue Skies Gonna stuff my hide Behind some Power Glide Get some southern fried back in my hide Chorus. As Close as Iʼll ever get to heaven Is makinʼ speed up old eighty-seven Of that hard Amarillo Highway
