Weil ich gerade mal wieder das Album „Waylon live“ höre und ganz gerührt bin, musste ich eben noch ein Zitat in die Album-Besprechung einfügen.
Das hier ist der ganze Text:
Bob Wills Is Still The King
(Waylon Jennings)
Well the honky-tonks in Texas were my natural second home
Where you tip your hat to the ladies and the Rose of San Anton‘
I grew up on music that we call western swing
It don’t matter who’s in Austin, Bob Wills is still the king
Lord I can still remember the way things were back then
In spite of all the hard times I’d live it all again
Hear the Texas Playboys and Tommy Duncan sing
Makes me proud to be from Texas where Bob Wills is still the king
You can hear the Grand Ol‘ Opry in Nashville Tennessee
It’s the home of Country Music on that we all agree
But when you cross that old Red River, hoss, that just don’t mean a thing
Once you’re down in Texas, Bob Wills is still the king
Well if you ain’t never been there then I guess you ain’t been told
That you just can’t live in Texas ‚less you got a lot a soul
It’s the home of Willie Nelson, the home of western swing
He’ll be the first to tell you, Bob Wills is still the king
