going home to texas to the place where i belong
the place i know so well.   been away to long
back to all my roots to my family
home sweet home once more i hear it calling me

had enough of travellin time to settle down
drifting place to place every different town
i miss the special things that i used to know
that i used to do all those years ago

home again once more where i long to be
back to all my roots i hear it calling me
had enough of drifting time to settle down
home again once more to my texas town

going home to texas to the place where i belong
the place i know so well.   been away to long
back to all my roots to my family
home sweet home once more i hear it calling me

i love country music with its country beat
with its country sound puts dancing in your feet
steel guitars and banjos and a country song
make you wanna dance for whole night long

folks they get together for the jamboree
makes them feel alive sets there spirit free
dancing all night long till the break of day
to the country sound they dance the night away

i love country music with its country beat
with its country sound puts dancing in your feet
steel guitars and banjos and a country song
makes you wanna dance for whole night long

the fiddles and the banjos with there country beat
puts music your soul dancing in your feet
dancing in a line they dance the night away
dancing all night long till the break of day

high up in the mountains where the hillbillys stay
when the weekend comes they dance the night away
a little bit of moonshine puts dancing in there feet
play guitars and banjos to a country beat

hand clapping knee slapping dancing all night long
to there country beat and a country song
dancing arm in arm the hillbilly way
dance the night away till break of day

dancing all together for the whole night through
playing country music with a dance or two
a little bit of moonshine and a country beat
steel guitars and banjos puts dancing in your feet

hand clapping knee slapping dancing all night long
to there country beat and a country song
dancing arm in arm the hillbilly way
dance the night away till break of day

you tore the heart in me the day you walked away
begged you not to go i wanted you to stay
you ignored my plea walked on out the door
said youve had enough dont love me anymore

now my world is empty just a lonely place
thought of losing you is something i cant face
i still love you so.   that will never die
i lay awake each night all i do is cry

just cant let you go i cant say goodbye
to get you back again i will try and try
wont give up on you and i never will
loved you from the start and i love you still

when the day is over and its time for bed
when i close my eyes your there in my head
keeping me awake  with my thoughts of you
thinking of the love one that i once knew

every where i go your still there with me
in my memory your face i  still see
im still in love with  you i cant let you go
i have always loved you more than you will know

wishing you were here home again once more
sharing all the love that we knew before
  cant give up on you no matter how i try
im still love with you just cant say goodbye

grandma was a counrty girl from a bluegrass family
when they played together crowds there would always be
bobby played the banjo joe he played guitar
grandma played the fiddle grandma was the star

she knew how to get that special blue grass sound
when  ever grandma played they came from miles around
they would dance all night to blue grass beat
puts music in your soul dancing in you feet

people they would dance to every single song
dance away the night as they sang along
dancing all together dancing through the night
to the blue grass sound till the early morning light

met her at the disco on a saturday
was looking for dance when she walked my way
she had long blonde hair  eyes bluer than the sea
i asked her for a dance she said yes to me

we walked on the dance floor beneath the disco light
to the disco music danced away the night
i knew when i saw her we were meant to be
wonder if she felt the same had feelings just like me

we danced to every song held each other tight
to the disco  sound danced away the night
now we are dating the rest his history
i knew that night we were meant to be
