It''s 1200 Miles from Palm Springs to Texas - Dean Martin

It’s 1200 miles from Palm Springs to Texas

But tonight it’s right next door

For a week each year

It’s the old frontier

That’s what brings them here, western atmosphere

You can’t tell the dudes from real riding cowboys

When they sashay across the floor

There’s the circus means, lots and lots of thrills

Folks from Houston yeah, and from Beverly Hills

Clowning from the Shamrock right to the Almiera door

You’ll find it’s 1200 miles from Palm Springs to Texas

But tonight it’s right next door

Do you see that parade

Do you hear that parade

Coming down Palm Canyon Drive

But if you see that parade

Come on and cheer that parade if you’re 8 or 85

Who’s that riding up ahead

Why it’s the govenor of Texas someone said

What’s he doing up this way

Why it Palm Springs and Texas day

Ah, you can’t tell the dudes from real riding cowboys

When they sashay across the floor

Folks are trading in all their Cadillacs

For those pinto ponies and cowhide slacks

And there’s no one left down at Neiman Marcus' store

Because it’s 1200 miles from Palm Spring to Texas

But tonight it’s right next door
