Grand Ole Opry Song

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Come and listen to my story if you will I'm gonna tell

About a gang of fellers from down at Nashville

First I'll start with old Red Foley doin' the "Chattanooga

Shoe"

We can't forget Hank Williams with them good old "Lovesick

Blues"

It's time for Roy Acuff to go to Memphis on his train

With Minnie Pearl and Rod Brasfield and Lazy Jim Day

Turn on all your radios I know that you will wait

Hear Little Jimmy Dickens sing "Take An Old Cold Tater And

Wait"

There'll be guitars and fiddles, Earl Scruggs and his banjo too

Bill Monroe singing out them ole Kentucky Blues

Ernest Tubb's number "Two wrongs won't make a right"

At the Grand Ole Opry ev'ry saturday night

There was Uncle Dave Macon his gold tooth and plug-hat

Cowboy Copas singing "Tragic Romance"

Signed Sealed and Delivered with Sam and Kirk McGee

And the master of ceremony was Mr. George D. Hays

There was Lonzo and Oscar a-poppin' bubble gum

George Morgan singin' "Candy Kisses" Yum Yum

"Got a Hole in My Bucket" "Bringin' in That

Georgia Mill"

We'll sing "The Sunny Side of The Mountain" and dance

to the "Chicken Reel"

There'll be guitars and fiddles and banjo pickin' too

Bill Monroe singin' out them ole Kentucky Blues

Ernest Tubb's number too wrongs won't make a right

At the Grand Ole Opry ev'ry saturday night

You can talk about your singers in all kinds of way

But none could sing the old songs like Bradley Kincaid

With his old hound dog "Guitar" and the famous

"Blue Tail Fly"

Stringbean with Hank Snow and old fiddlin' Chubby Wise

There'll be guitars and fiddles, Earl Scruggs and his banjo too

Bill Monroe singin' out them ole Kentucky Blues

Ernest Tubb's number "Two Wrongs Don't Make a right"

At the Grand Ole Opry ev'ry Saturday night
