Alabama - If You're Gonna Play In Texas (You Gotta Have A Fiddle In The Band) lyrics

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 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 doing Boys don't get us wrong There's just something missing in your song" 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 bow for faded love And let's all dance If you're gonna play in Texas You gotta have a fiddle in the band So we dusted off our boots And put our cowbtoy hats on straight Them Texans raised the roof When Jeff opened up his case Say y'all all want to two-step Say you wanna do-ce-doe Well, here's a fiddling song before we go If we're gonna play in Texas We gotta have a fiddle in the band That lead guitar is hot But not for a Louisiana man So rosen up that bow for faded love And let's all dance If we're gonna play in Texas We gotta have a fiddle in the band If we're gonna play in Texas We gotta have a fiddle in the band That lead guitar is hot But not for a Louisiana man So rosen up that bow for faded love And let's all dance If we're gonna play in Texas We gotta have a fiddle in the band
