Thank you.
Did anybody here buy that record?
We sold one.
We're trying to find out who bought it.
I guess not.
Hey, let me sing one by myself.
You think the world [F] is ready for this?
I don't know, but I am.
Well, you got a lot of nerve.
I mean, [G#] boy,
we got some pretty fair singers here in this [B] crowd tonight.
[G] Grandpa Jones is here.
I see Jim Reeves out there.
Jerry Bird's here.
[D] Well, he's not a singer exactly, is he?
Well, he hurt his last record and he turned singer now.
[E] Oh, I see.
[G]
[F#] Louie Ennis is here.
We [E] were talking about singers.
Chet Atkins.
[G#] I wonder what all these celebrities [G] are doing here tonight.
They're here for the [G] 8th annual [F] disc jockey festival, [B] Homer.
Not only that, but they're freeloading.
[G] [B]
[E] Who's that fellow with all [G] the whiskers?
That ain't Grandpa, is [D] it? No.
That's [F#] Santa Claus in [C] Technicolor.
[F#] How you fix for blades, buddy?
[C#] I've seen more hair than that [D#] on a piece of bacon.
[G]
[B] Homer, now, wait.
[G] [Bm] I was going to introduce your solo.
Now, let's leave the guy alone because he's got a deal back there.
He's going to do a commercial.
[N] The folks over at the International Harvester Company
are going to make up a special razor for this guy to use
when he gets rid of that brush back there.
Not only cuts the whiskers, it ties them up in little bundles.
So [G#] just think of that.
We'll get back to this solo that [D#] my [B] anemic little partner is going to do.
[D] He's very undernourished.
That'll show you how bad business has been.
In fact, it has been bad.
I don't like to bring this up, but our agent was dead two years
[G] before we knew about it.
[Em]
[D] [G] And we've [B] had a lot of disappointments here in Nashville, I'll tell you,
as a special feature of the disc jockey thing over there
why we [F#] were going to have a parade by our fan [G] club, the [F] Nashville Chapter.
[E]
And [A#] I don't know, they had to [B] cancel it.
One of the guys was sick, and the other guy had to work.
[C#] [B]
Hurry up before I get a beard like that [C#] guy.
I'll have to shave again.
[G] Hey, buddy, [Em] you walking out, get back in there.
You're no better than the [D#] rest of them.
[A]
[Em] [E] [D]
[A] [N] We're going to do a thing here called the Yellow Rose of [G] Texas.
Here's a title for you.
Oh, the yellow rose of Texas, [C] the cutest on [G] the earth.
Her right eye looks at Dallas, [A] her left one at Fort Worth.
[G] Her ponytails are dandy, [Am] that hairdo is a [G] prize.
[Em] But it comes in handy [G] when she's a switching fly.
Her skin is red and fuzzy, it feels just like a peach.
I looked her over from head to [A] toe, and she
[G] What are you doing?
Clearing my throat, I swallowed a bug.
I ain't going to say
It [A] ain't bad either.
[G]
What's the next word?
Her skin is red and fuzzy.
Her skin is red and fuzzy, it feels just like a peach.
I looked her over from head to toe, and she had one [D] of each.
[G] Her face has fallen arches, [C] it hangs just [G] like a sack.
She'd like to have it lifted, but she doesn't have the jacks.
[C] [G]
[A] [G]
[A]
[B] [N]
I wish you guys had [G] learned this.
Oh, the yellow rose of Texas, [C] she looks just [G] like a weed.
That one big upper tooth of hers looks like a [D] pumpkin seed.
[G] And when she opens up her [C] mouth, it looks [G] like a rake.
Her lips are just like petals, petals on a break.
[C] I was a-workin' in the garden [G] when I discovered her.
I reached for an ultimatum, and [A] darling, [D] there you were.
[G] You can take your nice distortion, [C]
and take [G] your violets blue.
And while you're at it, take the [D] yellow rose of [G] Texas too.
[E]
