Bob Wills Is Still The King lyrics

Verse 1:
Well the honky-tonks in Texas were my natural second home
Where you tip your hats to the ladies and the rose of San Antone
I grew up on music that we called western swing
It don`t matter who`s in Austin, Bob Wills is still the king

Verse 2:
Lord I can still remember, the way things were back then
In spite of all the hard times, I`d live it all again
To hear the Texas playboys and Tommy Duncan sing
Makes me proud to be from Texas where Bob Wills is still the king

Verse 3:
You can hear the Grand Ol` Opry in Nashville Tennessee
It`s the home of country music, on that we all agree But when you cross that ol` Red River hoss that just don`t mean a thing
Cause once you`re down in Texas, Bob Wills is still the king

Verse 4:
Well if you ain`t never been there then I guess you ain`t been told
That you just can`t live in Texas unless you got a lot of soul It`s the home of Willie Nelson, the home of western swing
He`ll be the first to tell you, Bob Wills is still the king
