Lyrics Whatever Happened To Randolph Scott - The Statler Brothers

Whatever Happened To Randolph Scott

Everybody knows when you go to the show you can’t take the kids along
You’ve gotta read the paper and know the code of GPG and R and X
And you gotta know what the movie’s about before you even go
Tex Ritter’s gone and Disney’s dead and the screen is filled with sex
Whatever happened to Randolph Scott ridin' the train alone
Whatever happened to Gene and Tex and Roy and Rex the Durango Kid
Oh whatever happened to Randolph Scott his horse plain as could be
Whatever happened to Randolph Scott has happened to the best of me
(guitar)
Everybody’s tryin' to make a comment about our doubts and fears
True Grit’s the only movie I’ve really understood in years
You gotta take your analyst along to see if it’s fit to see
Whatever happened to Randolph Scott has happened to the industry
Whatever happened to Johnny Mack Brown and Alan Rocky Lane
Whatever happened to Lash LaRue I’d love to see them again
Whatever happened to Smiley Burnette Tim Holt and Gene Autry
Whatever happened to all of these has happened to the best of me
Whatever happened to Randolph Scott has happened to the industry
