The Eyes of Texas are upon you.... The Eyes of Texas are upon you....

If you're gonna play in Texas, you gotta have a fiddle in the band
That lead guitar is hot, but not for a Louisiana man
So rosin up that bow for "Faded Love," and let's all dance
If you're gonna play in Texas, you gotta have a fiddle in the band

I remember down in Houston, we were putting on a show
When a cowboy in the back stood up and yelled, "Cotton-eyed Joe!"
He said, "We love what you're doing, boys, don't get us wrong;
There's just something missing in your song"

If you're gonna play in Texas, you gotta have a fiddle in the band
That lead guitar is hot, but not for a Louisiana man
So rosin up that bow for "Faded Love," and let's all dance
If you're gonna play in Texas, you gotta have a fiddle in the band

So we dusted off our boots and put our cowboy hats on straight
Them Texans raise the roof when Jeff opened up his case
We say, "Y'all all want a two-step, you say you want a do-si-do
Well, here's a fiddlin' song before we go...."

If you're gonna play in Texas, you gotta have a fiddle in the band
That lead guitar is hot, but not for a Louisiana man
So rosin up that bow for "Faded Love," and let's all dance
If you're gonna play in Texas, you gotta have a fiddle in the band

If you're gonna play in Texas, you gotta have a fiddle in the band
That lead guitar is hot, but not for a Louisiana man
So rosin up that bow for "Faded Love," and let's all dance
If you're gonna play in Texas, you gotta have a fiddle in the band

If you're gonna play in Texas, you gotta have a fiddle in the band
That lead guitar is hot, but not for a Louisiana man
So rosin up that bow for "Faded Love," and let's all dance
If you're gonna play in Texas, you gotta have a fiddle in the band
Yee-hah, rrrh-hah, oh yeah
