[Chorus]
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 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 Gentleman Jim Reeves singin' with Heaven's choir
Roger Miller, he just got here, he's making everybody laugh
Of 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, Webb 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 beautiful sight!
And I met all the stars in hillbilly heaven
Oh, what a star-spangled night!
