If You're Gonna Play In Texas (You Gotta Have A Fiddle In The Band) Songtext / Lyric

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



I remember down in Houston

We were puttin' on a show

When a cowboy in the back stood up

And yelled ha ha 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 both faded love

And let's all dance

If you're gonna play in Texas

You gotta have a fiddle in the band



So he dusted off our boots

And put our cowboy 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-do

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 both 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 both faded love

And let's all dance

If we're gonna play in Texas

We gotta have a fiddle in the band
