[Verse 1] I love to hear them old twin fiddles They can do more damage than a gun Have you ever seen a cowboy on the dance floor Im convinced thats how the west was won Were you there at the Trippin Springs reunion For me, thats how it all began It was me and Hank and Ernest Tubb and Willie There to win the battle of the bands [Chorus] I may sing my songs the whole world over I may live in Tennessee You can take the music out of Texas But youll never take Texas out of me [Verse 2] Now I can buy my boots in New York City Get my big black hats in New Orleans And even draw a crowd in London England And they all come in decked out in boots and jeans [Chorus] [Outro] You can take the music out of Texas But youll never take Texas out of me
