Lyrics
PANHANDLE WALTZ
Wide Texas sky, stars hanging high,
Ready to dance with the moon,
For miles cross the prairie comes the sound light and airy
Of fiddles beginning to tune.
Going round and around, keep your feet on the ground,
If there's romance it's nobody's fault,
Round and around, your heart's lost and found
When they're playing the Panhandle Waltz.
Blue Texas moon and a desert perfume,
Magic of spring in the air,
Your troubles and sorrow have to wait for tomorrow,
Tonight waltz away all your care.
And go round.....
Light-headed and dizzy, he's the right one, or is he?
Illusion is part of the dance,
The love that you find here you may leave behind here,
So gamble, go on take a chance.
And go round.....
