They thrilled all the folks down in texas
And then oklahoma heard their western swing
The miles folks traveled made no difference
Cause they came to dance and hear those fiddles sing

They took their songs to the coast of california
And then new york city heard their fiddles cry
The world will not forget the texas playboys
Cause the songs they played and sang will never die

And now bob's got a swing band in heaven
And they play while sleepy's banjo rings
The lord said bob I've brought you keith and jesse
Now they fiddle while old tommy duncan sings

Bob's got a swing band in heaven
The lord said bob I've brought you keith and jesse
They play faded love while tommy duncan sings
