Well I was thumbing through the channels
And I saw a sight to see
A so-called country singer, there singing on MTV
And I began to think - had she ever heard a thing
Had she ever been to Texas where Bob Wills is still the king
Ah - ha
From the Houston rodeo to any old dancehall
Of cowgirls and cowboys know how to have a ball
And every night they`ll tip a toast to the Lone Star state
Where the women are so fine and the music is so great
Cause I wanna two-step to a real dancehall swinger
I don`t wanna see no wanna-be country western singer
Don`t call it country unless you can prove it
I want something with a swing to it
Aw yeah...
All together now....
It`s a Texas thing, Y`all
So if you don`t understand just drop what you`re doing
Drive here as quick as you can
I`d even stop in Oklahoma if it was up to me
Cause when it comes to country, there ain`t none like
I wanna two-step to a real dancehall swinger
I don`t wanna see no wanna-be country western singer
Don`t call it country unless you can prove it
I want something with a swing to it
That hip-hoppin` rappin` boy band crap is for the squirrels in San Francisco
And Nashville is making music that sounds like a dadgum disco
Don`t call it country unless you can prove it
I want something with a swing to it
Yes, I said don`t call it country unless you can prove it
I want something with a swing to it
That`s right...
