I wanta sing |
|
About the things that make me happy |
|
I wanta sing |
|
About my brother and my mother and my sister and my pappy |
|
I wanta sing |
|
About the things that make me happy |
|
But most of all |
|
I wanta sing about you |
|
I picked up my first guitar when I was just eleven |
|
Listened to them grand old opry shows |
|
Well, I cut my teeth on gospel songs and good old country fair |
|
My favorites then were Acuff and Bill Monroe |
|
What a beautiful thought I am thinkin' |
|
Conserning that great speckled bird |
|
Blue moon of Kentucky keep on shining |
|
They were the sweetest songs I ever heard |
|
I wanta sing about |
|
The thing that make me happy |
|
I wanta sing about |
|
My brother and my mother and my sister and my pappy |
|
I wanta sing about |
|
The thing that make me happy |
|
But most of all |
|
I wanta sing about you |
|
I travel all over the world singing good old country music |
|
It makes me feel so good to hear them cheer |
|
Some like for me to sing the hits I do on the Grand Ole Opry |
|
And after all that's why were really here |
|
Well, my favorite songs that are sung today |
|
Are like Rivelle and Williams |
|
Boy, oh boy, they really were the best |
|
And when they sang their songs |
|
People laughed and cried by millions |
|
And here's the ones today they all request |
|
Always late with your kisses |
|
But your cheating heart will tell on you |
|
I love you, I'll prove it a thousand ways |
|
And that's why I got the lovesick blues |
|
I wanta sing about |
|
The thing that make me happy |
|
I wanta sing about |
|
My brother and my mother and my sister and my pappy |
|
I wanta sing about |
|
The thing that make me happy |
|
But most of all |
|
I wanta sing about you |
|
Yeah, most of all |
|
I wanta sing about you |
