Letras:Hermann Lammers Meyer. Other. My Life In Song.

Merle and Lefty sang to me about love and hate in life
Dick (Curless) and Dave (Dudley), they taught me `bout trucks and lonesome wifes
Little Rosa touched me bad when told by Red Sovine
And I first heard Jimmy Day play steel for Patsy Cline

I got inspired by many names that helped me on the road
Like Johnny Cash and Tom T Hall, Willie and Bill Monroe
Ray Benson and all those Texas Boys ..tradition was their thing
Heard Bob Wills Texas Playboys play some western swing

I loved Skeeter (Davis), Connie (Smith) and Norma Jean sing of tragedy and lies..
Little Jimmy Dickens showed me how to fly the Bird Of Paradise
Ray Wylie (Hubbard) put a Redneck Mother in my family
And with all them Emsland Hillbillies -- everybody sing along with me :



More than 2o years have come and gone, we`ve crossed the ocean blue
Clay (Blaker), Jon (Emery), Michael (Ballew) and me, been known to drink a few
Playing country music for the folks through all the thick and thin
If we could do it over, we would do the same again
