"D. Ray White"
Way down
in West Virginia
,
There’s
some people who are one of a kind
They
don’t need nothin’ from nobody
‘cause
there already doin’ fine
Ya got
Hasil Adkins hunchin’
And
Mamie’s raising hell
Legends of
D. Ray White will never die like the rebel yell.
And ol
Jesco dancin’ in his daddy’s shoes
Yea ol’
Hasil still hunchin’ out them Boone County Blues
And ol’
Mamie you know shes done some time in jail
And the
legend of D. Ray white will never die like the rebel yell.
Bertie Mae
White
She’s
the strongest woman that I’ve ever met in my life
She’s
raised over twenty-four of her own
and had to
watch her husband die
She’s
always fighting hard and livin’ off the land
when
she’s done living in this world
you know
the lord is going to take her by her hand
and ol’
Jesco still dancin’ in his daddy’s shoes
hey ol’
Hasil is still hunchin’ out them
And Mamie
you know she’s still raising hell
And the
legend of D. Ray White will never die like the rebel yell
Yea the legend of D. Ray White will never die like the rebel yell
