I love to hear them old twin fiddles
They can do more damage than a gun
Have you ever seen a cowboy on the dance floor
I'm convinced that's how the west was won
Were you there at the Trippin' Springs reunion
For me, that's how it all began
It was me and Hank and Ernest Tubb and Willie
There to win the battle of the bands
I may sing my songs the whole world over
I may live in Tennessee
You can take the music out of Texas
But you'll never take Texas out of me
Now I can buy my boots in New York City
Get my big black hats in New Orleans
And even draw a crowd in London England
And they all come in decked out in boots and jeans
I may sing my songs the whole world over
I may live in Tennessee
You can take the music out of Texas
But you'll never take Texas out of me
You can take the music out of Texas
But you'll never take Texas out of me
