As we listened to the Opry when I was just a kid.

My daddy talked through saturday's them crazy things he did.

He said this is a story, how your Mamma first met me

And the going thing was texas swing before Bob Will's was king

Was in the town of Tulsa about 30 years ago

At Cain's Academy down in old Oklahoma

Well the dust was blowing but the music was right

And W Lee O'Daniel played it all night

For The Light Crust Dough Boys and W. Lee O'Dan

We drove 80 miles through that blowing sand

My '37 Chevy was shootin' steam

Coming up them hill it just seized up on me

And I wouldn't miss a thing on saturday night

We're all in the chevy's in that Detroit light

I can hear that music in my ears

I was ready to go and I was shifting them gears

So your mamma passed the biscuits and gave me her hand

Knew she was my honey and she knew I was her man

We listenned to the fiddler he was making it sing

And heard them pretty notes of that guitar ring

I had no trouble, was fealing no pain

That moon shine whiskey and your mamma in my van

And The Light Crust Dough Boys and old Pappy Dan

Played us a song, we'll never forget

At the time they were tough and money was tight

But I didn't care on saturday night

Had no money but I could sang a blues

I felt like dancin' down in my shoes

Was in the town of Tulsa by 30 years ago

At Cain's Academy down in the old Oklahoma

When the dust was blowing but music was right

And W Lee o'Daniel played it all night
