I was busted down, not doing good, looking for an ark to ride out the flood
I went on down to the Spinninâ Wheel, lookinâ to buy me somethinâ to believe in
I had a drink, I met this girl, she gave me something to believe in
We waltzed clear across Texas, all the way up to Tulsa town
I threw my hat up to the stars and it never did come down
I threw my hat up to the stars and it never did come down
She danced so nice
She danced so nice into my life
I rough necked rigs, she worked five and dime gigs
We were young with somethinâ to believe in
We drank our fill but never so much to lose that somethinâ to believe in
We saved most of our money, we worked every inch of that Tulsa town
I threw my hat up to the stars and it never came down
I threw my hat up to the stars and it never came down
She danced so nice
She danced so nice into my life
We bought a ranch, it wasnât much, just enough to believe in
We raised our kids on wild prairie dust, now theyâve all gone to leavinâ
Weâre gettinâ old, as old as sin but we still got that something to believe in
And I never looked back, back across Texas, to when my life was upside down
I threw my hat up to the stars and it never did come down
I threw my hat up to the stars and it never did come down
