Outlaws And Lone Star Beer

(album: C. W. McCall & Co. - 1979)

Well, they're romping 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 hurting side a' life
Like taking pride in fam'ly
And a good, warm, loving wife
There's more to country music
Than to leave somebody crying
And the cheating
And the lying

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
