[E] [A]
I'm a high straight and plain view, side bettin' Ida Lou and a fresh [D] deckin' New Deal.
[E] Some call me high hand and some call me lower hand, but I'm holdin' what I am, [A] the will.
I'm a king handlin', man handlin', post tollin', high rollin', dust bowlin' [D] daddy.
And [E] I ain't got no blood veins, just got them four lanes of hard Amarillo highway.
[A]
Yeah, I don't wear no stetson, [E] but I'm willin' to bet son, that I'm big Texan [D] as you are.
There's a [E] girl in her bare feet, sleep on the back seat, and that trunk's full of pearl [A] and long spine.
I'm a pan handlin', man handlin', post tollin', high rollin', dust [D] bowlin' daddy.
And I [E] ain't got no blood veins, just got them four lanes of hard Amarillo [A] highway.

[E] [A]
So gonna hop out of bed, pop a [Am] pill in my head, yeah bust the pub for the golden spread under [D] blue sky.
Go [E] stuff my hide behind some power glide and get some southern [A] pride back in my eyes.
So I'm pan handlin', man handlin', post tollin', high rollin', dust [D] bowlin' daddy.
[E] And close I'll ever get to heaven is makin' speed up old lady sat by that hard ass [A] Amarillo highway.
