Songs About Me
I met a guy on the red eye. He spotted my guitar and said "What do you do?" I said, "I sing for a living, Country music mixed with a little rock and a little blues". He said, "I'm sorry but I've never been crazy 'bout that twang and trains and hillbilly thing What ever made you want to sing stuff like that?" I just looked at him and laughed and said, "'Cause it's songs about me and who I am. Songs about loving and living and good hearted women and family and God. Yeah, they're all just songs about me, songs about me. So I offered him tickets. I said, "You'll see what I mean if you show up tonight." He said "I doubt you'll change my opinion I'll be kind of busy, but hey man, I'll try." Then later on when we finished our songs about scars and cars and broken hearts I saw him, he was standing there right next to the stage and he shouted, "Man you were right it was like you sang those songs about me and who I am. Songs about loving and living and good hearted women and family and God. Yeah they're all just songs about me, songs about me." So I'll just keep on singing 'til I hear the whole world singing those songs about me and who I am. Songs about loving and living and good hearted women and family and God. Yeah they're all just songs about me, songs about me

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 "Lousiana 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 puttin' on a show. When a cowboy in the back stood up and yelled, "Cotton-Eyed Joe"!. He said, "We love what you're doin', boys don't get us wrong. There's just somethin' missin' 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 "Lousiana 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 raised the roof when Jeff opened up his case. You say y'all all wanna two-step. You say ya wanna doe-si-doe. Well, here's your 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 "Lousiana 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 "Lousiana 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.
