Osborne Brothers - Bluegrass Music's Really Gone to Town lyrics

rate me

(Justin Tubb)

Bluegrass music's really gone to town

Bluegrass music's really hit the ground

From New York to Bakersfield Calgary and Jacksonville

Bluegrass music's really gone to town.

I remember back when I was just a boy

In the hills of east Tennessee

I cut my teeth on Uncle Pen

They called it mountain music then.

That's why bluegrass means so much to me

I never thought I would live to see today there'd be bluegrass in Carnegie Hall

But them city folks got smart and love them country folks at heart

I guess they like their music after all.

Bluegrass music's really gone to town

Bluegrass music's really hit the ground

From New York to Bakersfield Calgary and Jacksonville

Bluegrass music's really gone to town.

--- Instrumental ---

They even got it on TV

College kids think it's the latest thing

Solemn gown and Texas shoes

Boston College barbeque.

Bluegrass really makes the rafter's rings

But kids today they think that is the same

They gotta think for each day in the week

But if you wanna see 'em go just give them footprints in the snow

Bluesgrass is the only thing for me.

Bluegrass music's really gone to town

Bluegrass music's really hit the ground

From New York to Bakersfield Calgary and Jacksonville

Bluegrass music's really gone to town...
