Daddy Claxton

On edit:
(hey Froggy, Just E-mail my points, and we'll cut out the middle man) lol

Now heres to Daddy Claxton may his name forever stand,
and always be remembered in the courts of all the land.
When his earthly race is over and as the curtain falls,
we'll carry him back to Dixie on the Wabash Cannonball

""The Wabash Cannonball" The Great Roy Acuff

Way to go Caveman you nailed this one solid.

Daddy Claxton is the phrase missing in your quote. The song was Roy Acuff's "Wabash Cannonball".
