Something With a Swing to It

Well, I was thumbing through the channels

And I saw a sight to see

A so-called country singer, there singing on MTV

And I began to think, had she ever heard a thing?

Had she ever been to Texas, where Bob Wills is still the king?

From the Houston rodeo to any old dancehall

Of cowgirls and cowboys know how to have a ball

And every night they'll tip a toast to the Lone Star State

Where the women are so fine and the music is so great

'Cause I wanna two-step to a real dancehall swinger

Don't wanna see no wanna-be country western singer

Don't call it country unless you can prove it

I want something with a swing to it

All together now

It's a Texas thing, y'all, so if you don't understand

Just drop what you're doing, drive here as quick as you can

I'd even stop in Oklahoma, if it was up to me

'Cause when it comes to country, there ain't none like Garry Lee

'Cause I wanna two-step to a real dancehall swinger

Don't wanna see no wanna-be country western singer

Don't call it country unless you can prove it

I want something with a swing to it

That hip-hop, rapping, boy-band crap

Is for the squirrels in San Francisco

And Nashville's making music that sounds like a dad-gum disco

Don't call it country unless you can prove it

I want something with a swing to it

Yes, I said don't call it country unless you can prove it

I want something with a swing to it

That's right
