On the road late in the night, the DJ said it's time to revive
some classic old country from my daddy's day Here's “T for Texas” Jimmie Rodgers on the way Then he played Oh Lonesome Me and “Silver Haired Daddy” by Gene Autry I swore I heard and angel what else could it be when Patsy sang “You're Stronger Than Me” It's an all night country revival from those who paved the country road with gold revival, country revival on the radio He said we're really on a roll now what have we here it's Leonard Slye and the Sons of Pioneers well Leonard rode west all the way to Hollywood became Roy Rogers like we all wished we could I bowed my head when Hank Williams sang “You're Cheatin Heart” and when the last note rang I thought what a way to drive through the night with all my hero's till dawn brought the light An all night country revival coming through on the radio revival, country revival glittering gold An all night country revival could that be Bill Monroe revival, country revival on the radio Now I know all things must change tomorrows legends will always remain here in our hearts, like Reba and Garth someday may be right at the start of a all night country revival coming through on the radio revival, country revival Chesney and Snow it's and all night country revival honky tonkin with McGraw and Jones revival, country revival on the radio |
