Bob Wills Is Still The King |
| 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 Old Opry in Nashville Tennessee |
| It’s the home of country music, on that we all agree |
| But when you cross that old Red River hoss, that just don’t mean a thing |
| Because 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 |
