w lee o daniel and the light crust dough boys

Alan Jackson

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
