Lyrics:
Some used to say we were their favorite band
Gave some folks the best time they ever had
There were nights when we could do no wrong
And everybody knew when to sing along
We were all the rage in Paris, San Antonio to Dallas
And every honky tonk and dance hall in between
Hardly had to cross the state line, Texas was our big time
Thought we'd made it far enough
Causе we were all thе rage in Paris
Bob Wills was a hero to us all
When we were raising Cain and swapping songs
Late into the night he'd rosin up the bow
And laid it down until the last one had to go
We were all the rage in Paris, San Antonio to Dallas
And every honky tonk and dance hall in between
Hardly had to cross the state line, Texas was our big time
Thought we'd made it far enough
Cause we were all the rage in Paris
Well now all those boys that drifted now are gone
But melodies remembered linger on
Now and then I wipe the dust off of my steel
I play just to recall how it used to feel
We were all the rage in Paris, San Antonio to Dallas
And every honky tonk and dance hall in between
Hardly had to cross the state line, Texas was our big time
Thought we'd made it far enough
Cause we were all the rage in Paris
