[Verse 1: ERNEST]
I know the stars are bright above that little Texas town
I bet I'm nowhere near her mind right now
Oh, but I can't say the same
It's been thunderin' and rain
I'm so full of all this liquor
And I'm drowning in this pain, I'm wonderin'
[Chorus: ERNEST]
Why, Dallas, did you take her from me?
Everythin' was fine out here in Nashville, Tennessee
We went from chasing Amarillo
Now I'm chasin' memories
I'm wondering, "Why did you take her from me?" (Oh)
[Verse 2: Lukas Nelson]
If I could see the ocean I would pour it on my head
Float around this desert like a possum playin' dead
Maybe I could drift back to her heart and find thе bed
Maybe she'll forgеt last night and everything I said
I'm wondering
[Chorus: Lukas Nelson]
Why, Dallas, did you take her from me?
Everythin' was fine out on a beach here in Maui
We went from chasin' Amarillo
Now I'm chasin' memories
I'm wondering, "Why did you take her from me?"
Come on play something
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Chorus: Lukas Nelson, Lukas Nelson & ERNEST]
Oh why, Dallas, did you take her from me?
Everything was perfect out here in Nashville, Tennessee
We went from chasing Amarillo
Now I'm chasin' memories
I'm wonderin' why did you take her?
Roll my heart right up and break it?
Yeah, why did you take her from me?
