(Bob Duncan, Jeff Durrill)

|
Well, they're rompin' down in Austin
|
And they call it "Western Swing"
|
They even wrote a song that says
|
"Bob Wills is still the king"
|
Well that I can agree with
|
But this much I declare
|
There's more to country music
|
Than outlaws and Lone Star beer
|
|
From Tennessee to Texas,
|
They say it's all the same
|
Well, there's no "T" in Nashville,
|
But we've got our claim to fame
|
It's called The House That Hank Built
|
And it's sacred, Lord, I swear
|
There's more to country music
|
Than outlaws and Lone Star beer
|
|
Well, there's more to country music
|
Than the hurtin' side a' life
|
Like takin' pride in fam'ly
|
And a good, warm, lovin' wife
|
There's more to country music
|
Than to leave somebody cryin'
|
And the cheatin'
|
And the lyin'
|
|
Now brothers, understand me
|
I don't put nobody down
|
'Cause we all know with what you do
|
Well you're the best around
|
But as I stand to cheer you
|
I'll make my feelin's clear:
|
There's more to country music
|
Than outlaws and Lone Star beer
|
Yeah, there's more to country music
|
Than outlaws and Lone Star beer
|
