chorus:

if you're gonna play in texas

You gotta have a fiddle in the band

That lead guitar is hot

But not for a louisiana man

So rosen up that both faded love

And let's all dance

If you're gonna play in texas

You gotta have a fiddle in the band

way down in alabama

We were puttin' on a show

When a cowboy in the back stood up

And yelled ha ha joe

Said we love what you're doing

But boys don't get us wrong

There's just something missing in your song

chorus

so he dusted off our boots

And put our cowboy hats on straight

Then texans raised the roof

When jeff opened up his case

Say ya all want to two-step

Say you wanna do-ce-do

Here's a fiddling song before jeff goes

Chorus x 2

Solo fiddle

Chorus (faster)

Solo fiddle
