Reed, Jerry - Phantom Of The Opry Lyrics
Well I'm the Nashville Phantom
And I've been hangin' around
Saturday Night Live since 1925
When the Opry first came to town
There ain't a honky tonk where I ain't been
Raised on goo goo bars moonshine from fruit jars
Born to lose but determined to win
I'm the phantom of the Opry
I discovered all the stars my friend
I am the spirit of country music
Keep those cards and letters comin' in
I gave Mother Maybelle her thumb pick
I taught Acuff to fiddle made Jimmy Dickens little
And I sang Hank Williams the blues
I showed Grandpa Jones how to banjo
Chet could pick but I learned him to grin
I laid howdy on Minnie made Stringbean skinny
And I'd do it all over again
I'm the phantom of the Opry...

Have never heard this. It is VERY awesome! I know he was a helluva guitar player but do I hear some Chet Atkins in this?
Damn this is a good song!

I forgot how awesome he truly was. Man I miss him, Haggard and Marty Robins!
