Well the honky-tonks in Texas were my natural second home |
|
Where you tip your hats to the ladies and the rose of San Antone |
|
I grew up on music that we called western swing |
|
It don't matter who's in Austin,Bob Wills is still the king |
|
Lord I can still remember,the way things were back then |
|
In spite of all the hard times,I'd live it all again |
|
To hear the Texas playboys and Tommy Duncan sing |
|
Makes me proud to be from Texas where Bob Wills is still the king |
|
You can hear the Grand Ol' Opry in Nashville Tennessee |
|
It's the home of country music,on that we all agree |
|
But when you cross that ol' Red River hoss that just don't mean a thing |
|
Cause' once you're down in Texas,Bob Wills is still the king |
|
Well if you ain't never been there then I guess you ain't been told |
|
That you just can't live in Texas unless you got a lot of soul |
|
It's the home of Willie Nelson,the home of western swing |
|
He'll be the first to tell you,Bob Wills is still the king |
