Woof, this song is more obscure than I had thought.

Lyrics do not seem to be available.

There are a number of fine museums in Fort Worth. I have enjoyed my visits there. Ben Hogan lived much of his life there, so it must be an OK place...

The saying used to be that Ft Worth has something Dallas would never have; a major city 30 miles east of it.

And it looks like the Will Rogers Museum of Fine Arts has expanded a great deal since last I was there:
