Andy Griggs - Hillbilly Band lyrics

North Louisiana on a saturday night

I was sittin in the glow of the dashboard lights

Ill never forget i was 6 years old

When i heard comin out of my daddys radio

Come out of my seat and said 'son of a gun'

Daddy said naw thats the opry son

Chorus:

I heard the crowd start screamin

And i started dreamin

Of one day runnin

With a hillbilly band

Bought a gitar, learned a few chords

found a few guys and a bveat up ford

Pretty girls would come from miles around

Like bees to honey to hear that sound

All we could afford was bread and mayonaise

Living for the moment when wed hit that stage

Chorus:

I heard the crowd start screamin

And i started dreamin

Of one day runnin

With a hillbilly band

I came to Nashville, they liked my songs

I got a bus-45 feet long

Bought a house to put a gold record on the wall

Funny thing is im hardly there at all

The money the cars, you can have that stuff

Just give me what I love

Chorus 2:

To hear the crowd start screamin

To the song that im singin

The one about runnin

With a hillbilly band
