[Chorus]
G# D# C# G#
If you're gonna play in Texas, you gotta have a fiddle in the band
G# D# C# D#
That lead guitar is hot but not for "Louisiana Man"
Fm D# C# G#
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 puttin' on a show
G# D# C# D#
When a cowboy in the back stood up and yelled, "Cotton-Eyed Joe"!
G# D# C# G#
He said, "We love what you're doin', boys don't get us wrong
G# D# G#
There's just somethin' missin' in your songs"
[Chorus]
G# D# C# G#
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
G# D# C# D#
Them Texans raised the roof when Jeff opened up his case
G# D# C# G#
You say y'all all wanna two-step, you say ya wanna do-si-do
G# D# G#
Well, here's your fiddlin' song before we go
[Chorus]
