George Harvey Strait (born May 18, 1952) is an American country music artist. George Strait has marked a monumental career achievement by having more number one hit singles than any living artist, a total of 52, second only to the late Conway Twitty. Out of all the new country singers to emerge in the early '80s, George Strait stayed the closest to traditional country. Drawing from both the honky tonk and Western swing traditions, Strait didn't refashion the genres; instead, he revitalized them for a new decade. In the process, he became one of the most popular and influential singers of the decade, sparking a wave of neo-traditionalist singers from Randy Travis and Dwight Yoakam to Clint Black, Garth Brooks, and Alan Jackson.

Dance Time In Texas Lyrics

George Strait

Its dance time in texas and were striking up the band
Lets go honky tonkin honey take my hand
Its dance time in texas where the wine and music flows
Well do that texas two step and that old cotton eyed joe
Ill take you honky tonkin in my old pick up truck
Its dance time in texas and the music lifts you up
Its dance time in texas and were striking up the band
Well go honky tonkinhoney take my hand
Its dance time in texas where the wine and music flows
Well do that texas two step and that old cotton eyed joe
Now its time for a slow dance and were waltzing oh so close
Its dance time in texas and your the one I love the most
Its dance time in texas and were strinking up the band
Well go honky tonkin honey take my hand
Its dance time in texas where the wine and music flows
Well do that texas two step and that old cotton eyed joe
