Lyric Outlaws and Lone Star Beer

(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
