| I dreamed I was there in hill-billy heaven
|
| (Oh, what a beautiful sight)
|
| I met all the stars in hill-billy heaven
|
| (Oh, what a star-studded night)
|
| Last night I dreamed I went to hill-billy heaven
|
| And you know who the doorman was?
|
| It was everybody’s favorite cowboy, Will Rogers
|
| So I asked him to kinda show me around a bit and he was right pleased to
|
| And he says «Eddie, I want you to meet one of our star lodgers»
|
| And you know it was?
|
| It was the old blue yodeler himself, Jimmie Rogers
|
| I dreamed I was there in hill-billy heaven
|
| (Oh, what a beautiful sight)
|
| Well he took me around some more and showed me his old ropes
|
| And the gold guitars and fiddles are hanging in there in their hall of fame
|
| And he says «Eddie, I want you to meet now a boy who is loved by countless
|
| millions»
|
| And sure enough, there was my old buddy, Mr. Hank Williams
|
| I met all the stars in hill-billy heaven
|
| (Oh, what a star-studded night)
|
| Well then I asked him who else he had booked in within the next hundred years
|
| And he showed me the longest list of names I ever saw
|
| So I started to read: Red Foley, Ernest Tubb, Gene Autry, Roy Acuff,
|
| Eddy Arnold, Tex Ritter, Roy Rogers, Eddie Dean
|
| Eddie Dean?
|
| Well that’s when I woke up and I’m sorry that I did 'cause
|
| I dreamed I was there in hill-billy heaven
|
| (Oh, what a beautiful sight) |
