Mclusky Do Dallas is the second album by three-piece Welsh band Mclusky, released on April 1, 2002 by Beggars offshoot Too Pure Records.

Mclusky Do Dallas spawned 4 singles, 3 of which predated the album's release: "Lightsabre Cocksucking Blues", "Whoknowyou", "To Hell With Good Intentions", and "Alan is a Cowboy Killer". The album was re-released on limited edition white marble and clear orange vinyl as a Record Store Day exclusive in 2012.
Online music magazine Pitchfork Media placed Mclusky Do Dallas at number 94 on their list of the top 200 albums of the 2000s.
"To Hell with Good Intentions" was ranked number 40 in BBC Radio DJ John Peel's Festive Fifty for 2002.
All songs written by Andy Falkous, Jonathan Chapple and Matthew Harding, except "Chases", written by Falkous, Chapple, Harding, and Simon Alexander.
