texas fiddle song

Singer:merle haggard

i get this going fever everytime i hear a tune

that talks about south texas where the cactus is in bloom

i feel i oughta be there every evening after dark

to hear the fiddler fiddlin' around a tune called old joe clark. we played that show in tulsa then it was ft worth bound

we headed south on 35 to that south texas town

it's a different world and a lot of fun if you like that country sound

you can find yourself a partner when they boil that cabbage down. well

if you're ever down in texas and feeling all alone

there's a lot of kicker places just south of san antone

ain't nothin' fancy mind ya just a place where good folks go

you can hear the bootheels start to click when they play the cotton eyed joe.
