(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
