If you're gonna play in texas,
You gotta have a fiddle in the band
That lead guitar is hot,
But not for "lousiana man"
So rosin up that bow for "faded love"
And let's all dance
If you're gonna play in texas,
You gotta have a fiddle in the band
I remember down in houston
We were puttin' on a show
When a cowboy in the back stood up and yelled,
"cotton-eyed joe"!
He said, "we love what you're doin'
Boys don't get us wrong,
There's just somethin' missin' in your song
Chorus
So we dusted off our boots and put our cowboy hats on straight
Them texans raised the roof when jeff opened up his case
You say y'all all wanna two-step you say ya wanna doe-si-doe
Well, here's a fiddlin' song before we go
Chorus
Repeat and fade
