Merle Haggard Texas Fiddle Song Lyrics

Texas Fiddle Song Lyrics

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



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
