The Dooright Family - Ray Stevens
I wanta tell you a story 'bout the Dooright Family
That soul singing gospel group from the hills of Tennessee
They travel in a silver eagle with eight rooms and a shower
And every Sunday afternoon you can tune 'em in on the Dooright hour

"Oh yes friends and neighbors we are the Dooright Family
Broadcasting over the airwaves from Nashville, Tennessee
Reach over and turn up your radio's and we'll bring our music to ya
And pretty soon you'll shout hallelujah!"

Well you've the Dooright (Dooright), Dooright (Dooright)
Dooright (Dooright), Dooright (Dooright)
And we invite you to help us sing our song
The Dooright...yes it's the doo-Dooright's
You know you can't go wrong!

"Here's brother Therman."
"Howdy neighbors"
"Sister Doris and Sister Dewdrop"
"Praise glory!"
"Oh bless your hearts, girls"
"Bless your heart, Daddy; bless your heart Virgil, bless your heart Mama, bless your..."
"Hold it! That's enough heart blessing. Here's brother Virgil"
"Lordy, lordy, lordy"
"Atta boy, Virgil and of course friends I'm Daddy Dooright!"
"No show would be complete. You wouldn't dare delete
She can't be beat, you're in for a treat
She'll sweep you off of your feet
So hang on to your seats
Prepare to meet and greet our dear sweet Mama..."
"Hallelujah friends and neighbors
Never give in to that sin and temptation that's lurking in the shadows
But constantly strive for that burning beacon on the distant horizon...ha, ha, ha, ha"
"Okay, Mama, that's enough"
"Ha, ha, ha, ha..."
Hush Mama, Virgil!"
"Now play the piano Mama"
