Texty: Terry Allen. Amarillo Highway.

I'm a high straight in Plainview
Side bet in Idalou and a fresh deck in New Deal
Yeah, some call me high hand an' some call me low hand
But I'm holdin' what I am, the wheel

'Cause I'm pan handlin', man handlin'
Post holin', high rollin', dust bowlin' daddy
And I ain't got no blood veins
I just got them four lanes of hard Amarillo Highway

Yeah, I don't wear no Stetson but I'm willin' to bet son
That I'm a big a Texan as you are
'Cause there's a girl in her bare feet sleep on the back seat
And that trunk is full of Pearl and Lone Star

'Cause I'm pan handlin', man handlin'
Post holin', high rollin', dust bowlin' daddy
And I ain't got no blood veins
I just got them four lanes of hard Amarillo Highway

So gonna hop outta bed, pop a pill in my head
Yeah, bust the hub for the golden spread under blue skies
Gonna stuff my hide behind some power glide
An get some southern fried back in my eyes

'Cause I'm pan handlin', man handlin'
Post holin', high rollin', dust bowlin' daddy
And close I'll ever get to heaven is makin' speed up ol' 87
Of that hard ass Amarillo Highway
