Tear Down the Grand Ole Opry John Hartford

They're gonna tear down the grand old opry
They're gonna tear down the sound that goes around our song
They're gonna tear down the grand ole opry
Another good thing, is done gone on, done gone on

Well there were campers and there were busses
Parked all around, where there used to be a door
But that place called the grand ole opry
It just ain't there
Just ain't there no more

They're gonna tear down the grand old opry
They're gonna tear down the sound that goes around our song
They're gonna tear down the grand ole opry
Another good thing, is done gone on, done gone on

Right across from the wax museum
They used to line up around the block
From east Tennessee and back down home again
All of a sudden there's nothing to do
Where there once was an awful lot
Broad Street will never be the same

They're gonna tear down the grand old opry
They're gonna tear down the sound that goes around our song
They're gonna tear down the grand ole opry
Another good thing, is done gone on, done gone on
