[G] I'm from the Knick Knack, oh I'm [D] from the Knick Knack
[G] [D]
Well it was a way back in 1989
I crossed that old mason's big [A] line
She was a young girl, long to [E] return
To that old [A] place that they left behind
[D] Well my old mate went out in Alabama
On an old black Cajun near Berman Half
[A] That's one thing certain, I'm always [E] flirting
With those [A] southbound trains
[D] I'm from the Knick Knack, [G] I said the Knick Knack
[D] By the fields of cotton, back into me
I might see you, [G] you'll be having you
[E] I'm a friend of the [A] Augusta scene
[D] I'm from Alabama, Tennessee, or [G] Carolina
In a plane [D] below the place of the Knick Knack
I heard from the Knick, [G] I said from the Knick
I'm from [D] the Knick Knack
[N]
I'm shaking this, he's gonna shake the table
Outrageous
Walking up the creek
And some of the neighbors come by
And said, ain't you supposed to be
Be on the Nashville Now or Network
Or whatever it is
And I took out like a scalded gander you know
And finally got here
Well yeah, I heard that you drove
I heard that you broke the speed limit
You drove 80 miles an hour to get here
Well I did, I never do go that, quite that fast
But I did that time
And then we, I was, he done done the tune
And so we got out here in the back
And rehearsed a little nothing and done it
Yeah, the grandpa came, I heard see
[Ab] He missed the opening, it was the opening song Yeah
So we decided to do the Hee Haw Gospel Quartet
As a trio with Kenny and Buck Owens and Roy
I wish I [N] heard
Nobody knew where Grandpa was
And finally about 25 minutes into the show
We heard he was here, and he was
I heard he was here and he was mad Oh
I said who's he mad at
He said he's mad at himself
But we, it went together
But what, what really
George Lindsay said I hit him
What bothered you, I think later on you told me
That people thought we did that on purpose
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Said you made that up didn't you
Yeah
You, you wanna
Do you have anything you want to say to Grandpa?
Well I just want to say hello and everything
Have you been working with him over on the Hee Haw set?
Oh yeah, they built me a little shack and everything
You, you work with Grandpa?
No, no I get to work with Kathy Baker Oh yeah
Well I'd rather work with Kathy Baker, she's a lot prettier
Well yeah but she's, she's real nice Well, I
You got, have you had any lines with Grandpa on Hee Haw?
Oh, not yet, we haven't got any chance to do any funny stuff or nothing
We're gonna do it though
You are gonna do it
Are you out of breath?
Yeah
Just playing the banjo
Well you try to sing Dixie Wine
I didn't know
I mean, I'm glad it was the first song, I'll tell you that
Was it all downhill from here?
Yeah, I guess so
But it's like mauling rails, you know What?
I didn't realize it was such a tough job
To flog the five and six
There ain't no swallowing place Oh
You just have to keep on going, you know
Well maybe Mr.
Whitehurst, could you get an arrangement of
Are You From Dixie with a Swallowing Place in it?
