Thank You Connersville Indiana lyrics
Send "Thank You Connersville Indiana" Ringtone to your Cell
I rolled into Connersville in 1961 with what was left of my last army pay
I had a letter with me from a buddy living there
He said you stop and see me if you`re ever up this way
Need I say he was surprised to find me at his door
With what I guess you`d call a silly grin
He said where are you headed and I said I`m headed here
His Mama said don`t stand there you`ll catch cold just come on in
They gave me room and board I paid a very modest fee
Then I went looking for a place to play
If you`ve ever had a hat and didn`t wear one then you`ll know
The way a country singer made a living in those days
The menu printed on the window of the bar and grill
The man said we`re too small to have a band
I said well I`ll just pick and sing and pass my hat awhile
He said go right ahead but you just do the best you can
Well after seven hours of Cheatin` Heart and Wildwood Flower
I had me seven dollars eighty cents
I gave it to a waitress who was gonna have a baby
She said she needed just that much to help her pay the rent
[ dobro ]
Later on I formed a band and really hit the big time
Ten bucks a night for working at the time
We worked through winter gardens and some other choice nightspots
Looking back I have to say those were the good ole times
Summer came and me and old Mitch Mitchell fished White River
And caught those big ole juicy channel cats
Sometimes when I`m ridin` on the jet plane going somewhere
I get to thinking that I`d like to live a life like that
So thank you Connersville and thanks to you old Indiana
You took me in when I knew slimmer days
I won`t forget you and I hope that you will not forget me
And you folks stop and see me if you`re ever down this way Send " Thank You Connersville Indiana" Ringtone to your Cell
