[E]
[B] Well, the honky [Em]-tonks in Texas [A] were my natural second [E] home
Where you tipped your hats to the ladies and the rows of [B] San Antonio
[A] I grew up on music [E] that we called Western Swing
who's in Austin, [B] Bob Wills is still [E] the king
[A] if you ain't never been there, [E] then I guess you ain't been told
live in Texas unless you got a [B] lot of soul
Willie, what's his name, [A] and the home of [E] Western Swing

[B] Well, the honky [Em]-tonks in Texas [A] were my natural second [E] home _
_ Where you tipped your hats to the ladies and the rows of [B] San Antonio
_ _ _ [A] I grew up on music [E] that we called Western Swing
_ It don't matter who's in Austin, [B] Bob Wills is still [E] the king
_ Well, _ _ _ _ _ [A] if you ain't never been there, [E] then I guess you ain't been told
_ That you just can't live in Texas unless you got a [B] lot of soul
_ _ [E] It's the home of Willie, what's his name, [A] and the home of [E] Western Swing
_ _ He'll be the first to tell you, [B] Bob Wills is [E] still the king Sure, Lou _ _
_ _ _ [A] _ _ [E] _

_ _ _ [B] _ _ [E] _
_ _ _ [A] The grand old uproar [E] from Nashville, Tennessee
_ It's the home of country music, a home that we [B] all agree
_ _ [E] When you cross that old Red River Hoss, [A] that just don't [E] mean a thing
_ _ _ Once you're back in Texas, [B] Bob Wills is [E] still the king

_ _ _ really wrote that song because I was mad at Willie
And _ _ it was a letter, _ _ I thought I'd write him a letter in rhyme _
_ And the more I got along with it, this ain't bad _ _ _
Willie gonna really like this, _ he gonna wish he had one like that _ _
Sure enough, he got four or five of them _
Let me introduce the band to you
He's _ _ _ _ our band leader and our red guitar player _
His name is Jerry Bridges, give him a big hand
Back _ _ _ _ _ _ _ here on the piano, he's great, his name is Barry Walsh, give him a big hand _ _ _ _ _
Back here, _ behind them drums, _ his name is Jeff Hale, and a good boy
_ And from Austin, Texas
_ _ Well, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
really I lied to you about the Austin part _
_ _ You see, he ain't been with us very long, and he's a good bass player
And I'm afraid he might get his feelings hurt and quit if you didn't give him a big hand
So I told you he's from Austin
_ Smarter than a whoop, right? _
His name is Kevin Hogan, give him a big hand
_ Now _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ this one here, come on over here, hon _ _
This is _ _ _ our newest member to our band
_ This is my daughter, Jennifer _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _

Last but not least, and first and foremost _ _
