The Western Beat

(专辑： Hat Town - 1998)

Legend has it years ago
A sound was born and began to grow
Old Tex and Buddy showed the way
And a brand new beat was here to stay

Miles around you could hear it coming
Steel guitars and a flat pick strumming
And it told the story of the working man
And the beat spread out across the land

The western beat is alive and kicking
Carrying on an age old tradition
The good old boys are turning up the heat
And the house is shaking to the western beat

So come on boys rosin up the bow
There's fire in the fiddle and the old banjo
Stoke it 'till you can't hold it down
Serve it up at the speed of sound

The western beat is alive and kicking
Carrying on an age old tradition
The good old boys are turning up the heat
And the house is shaking to the western beat

Well the western beat is a freight train coming
Across the land like a diesel humming
And it tells the story of the working man
You can still hear it ringing out across the land

Yeah the western beat is alive and kicking
Carrying on an age old tradition
The good old boys are turning up the heat

Yeah the western beat is alive and kicking
Carrying on an age old tradition
The good old boys are turning up the heat
And the country's shaking to the western beat
