Jimmie Rodgers Visits the Carter Family Jimmie Rodgers (Ft. The Carter Family)

[Intro]
Far away on a hill, thou a sunny mountain side
Many years ago we parted, my little Ruth and I
From the sunny mountain side

[Verse]
Hey girls, stop that noise!
Yonder comes a strange car up our road
Lord, it may be the revenue-officer
It has a Texas license
Oh, that’s Jimmie Rodgers!
Hey – hey, howdy Folks, dee – yodel – ay – hee – hee
Ha – ha, so this is Virginia?
Yes Sir, mighty glad to see you, Jimmie!
Get out and come right in!
You are the first cowboy we’ve seen in a long time
He – he, is that so?
Boy it’s a long way from here to Texas
Man – Man, I didn’t know it’s such a drive from Texas to Virginia
Well, I’m here anyhow
Gee! I’ve been wanting to see you, Folks, for a long time
How about a little drink, Jimmie?
Ha – ha, Boy that sounds good to me, dee – yodel – ay – hee – hee
Man – Man, come and go get the old boy a little squirt, will you?
Girls, you all play him a little tune
Make him feel like he’s at home while he’s at Maces Springs
