[Verse 1]
Won't you please stop nagging me about that brand new dress?
You know, I've worked and done my best
Been saving my money for all these years
And when I get to Nashville, there'll be no more tears
Eating high on the hog
Putting on the dog
Buying everything in the new catalog
[Verse 2]
You know, all my life, I've picked and strummed
Why, there ain't a tune that I can't hum
And folks all said from near and far
That, someday, I'd be an Opry star
That's how I got you, honey
Why, you know'd I'd be in the money
Nevеr was no flies on you, gal
[Verse 3]
And you remembеr that time at the county seat
When I shook hands with Ernest Tubb?
And he liked that song I sung him too
'cause he asked me to send him a dub
And he called me "son". Remember that? "Son"!
Just like he knowed me all his life
That's my kind of folks
Won't you please stop nagging me about that brand new dress?
You know, I've worked and done my best
Been saving my money for all these years
And when I get to Nashville, there'll be no more tears
Eating high on the hog
Putting on the dog
Buying everything in the new catalog

You know, all my life, I've picked and strummed
