Boxcar Willie - Song Of Songs lyrics

How I love that old melody they are playing I've heard it in so many different songs It's made stars of country music singers And the tune just keeps playing on Oh, I'm thinking tonight of my blue eyes Seems to me its been around since time began It was there with our solders during war time And right today we still hear it now and then Roy Acuff was a young country singer Who's record were just starting to be heard That old tune took him right up to stardom On the wings of the great speckled bird Hank Thomson is a country music legend He sang western swing and songs of grief and strife That same tune gave Hank the break he needed On a record called the wild side of life A young girl made the world stop and listen Kitty Wells was that young singers name It wasn't God who made honky tonk angels That melody ran clear as country rain Those note must have came straight out of heaven In so many different songs they were the same I know someday they'll be etched in gold forever And placed in the country music hall of fame And placed in the country music Hall of fame....
