it`s an old song,,one line is---( i dreamed i was there in hillbilly heavan !!!!) been bugging me all day....please,thankyou... Hillbilly Heaven by Tex Ritter Dolly Parton - I Dreamed Of A Hillbilly Heaven I Dreamed Of A Hillbilly Heaven Lyrics
Artist(Band):Dolly Parton
I dreamed I was there in hillbilly heaven oh what a beautiful sight
And I met all the stars in hillbilly heaven oh what a star spangled night
Last night I dreamed I went to hillbilly heaven
And just as I arrived the old curtain lifted
And there on stage stood who else but Roy Acuff and Tex Ritter
They said well how you doing come on in here
I know there's some folks you wanna see
Over there's our newest member your old friend Conway Twitty say Hello Darlin'
And there's gentlemen Jim Reeves singin' with heaven's choir
Roger Miller he just got here he's making everybody laugh
Course you know Roy Orbison can sing just as high as anybody here
And Ernest Tubb can sing as low
And Patsy Cline well bet she's the best singin' angel here
And Dottie West is probably the prettiest
There's the old pea-picker Ernie Ford
Jimmy Rodgers George Morgan Hank Williams
And the wandering boy Web Pierce
The old honky tonker himself Lefty Frizzell
My goodness what a group
Would you just listen to Mother Mabel
Over there pickin' the Wildwood Flower with the angel band
You know I personally think she's just about God's favorite
And Marty Robbins well he's still gettin' more encores than anybody else up here
Just like he used to down on earth
Yeah well there's Elvis they still call him the King
But we know they're not talking about the real king up here
I dreamed I went to hillbilly heaven oh what a star studded night
Then I ask Roy and Tex I said well who do you think will be showin' up
Say within the next 40 50 60 years
They handed me a big tallybook and in it I saw names like Johnny Cash
George Jones Merle Haggard Don Gibson Mel Tillis Farren Young Kitty Wells
Some of the newer ones like Vince Gill and Garth Brooks
Course they talked about Minnie Pearl the Judds Tanya Tucker Reba McEntire Hank Jr
Oh of course Buck Owens Roy Rodgers Gene Autry Randy Travis and Willie Nelson There's old Chet
I said well where's Porter Wagoner's name oh there it is
And then there was Loretta Lynn and Tammy Wynette and Dolly Parton
Oooh that's when I woke up
I dreamed I was there in hillbilly heaven oh what a beautiful sight
And I met all the stars in hillbilly heaven oh what a star spangled night DOLLY PARTON, LORETTA LYNN, TAMMY WYNETTE lyrics - I Dreamed Of A Hillbilly Heaven
I dreamed I was there in hillbilly heaven
Oh, what a beautiful sight!
And I met all the stars in hillbilly heaven
Oh, what a star-spangled night!
[Spoken:]
Last night, I dreamed I went to hillbilly heaven
And just as I arrived, the old curtain lifted
And there on stage stood, who else, but Roy Aikcuff and Tex Ritter!
They said, "Well, how you doing? Come on in here, I know there's some folks you wanna see!
Over there's our newest member, your old friend Conway Twitty! Say hello, darlin'!
And there's gentlemen Jim Reeves, singin' with Heaven's choir
Roger Miller, he just got here, he's making everybody laugh
'Course you know Roy Orbison can sing just as high as anybody here
And Ernest Tubb can sing as low!
And Patsy Cline, well, bet she's the best singin' angel here
And Dottie West is probably the prettiest
There's the old pea-picker, Ernie Ford, Jimmy Rodgers, George Morgan, Hank Williams
And the wandering boy, Web Pierce
The old honky-tonker himself Lefty Frizzell
My goodness, what a group!
Would you just listen to Mother Mabel
Over there pickin' the wildwood flower with the angel band?
You know I personally think she's just about God's favorite
And Marty Robbins, well, he's still getting more encores than anybody else up here, just like he used to down on earth
Yeah, well, there's Elvis
They still call him the King but we know they're not talking about the real king up here!"
I dreamed I was there
In hillbilly heaven
Oh, what a star-studded night!

Oh, what a star-spangled night! Hillbilly Heaven by Tex Ritter. Great song by the way. this song was done by several but Tex Ritter's version is my favorite. How sad is it that a woman from Tennessee can't answer that one for ya?? lol Sorry, shy! I have no clue. I hate it when that happens, too!! Hope you get your answer. :) |
