The Old Stuff

Oh, I said a little prayer to-night 'fore I came on stage As I came walk-in past the drivers and the locals on the union wage I asked the Dear Lord up in heaven Let me treat the music right Then I prayed that Detroit, goes wild tonight Intro : n.c. Seven pickers and all our in a rental van Playin music never sleepin and working on a neon tan We played the barn down in Sanford, Florida, For Bev Roberts out in Camden Park We plugged it in up east a Bull Run, and the place went dark Chorus 1 Back when the old________ stuff_______ was new Back before the buses and the hard working boys in the crew Well, it was one big party but the papers called it paying our dues back when the old______ stuff_________was new Verse 2 Oh the stories we could tell if it weren't for the code of the road About the Buckboard, Bear Creek, Cowboys and the Grizzly Rose You know the weather turned bad in Scottsdale A tornado nearly stole the show We just danced in the rain and listened to the thunder rolls Chorus 2 Back when the old stuff was new Hats off to the K. C. Opry and eLLA Guru's It was one big party, Uncle Joe you know we owe it all to you Back when the old stuff was new Instrumental Solo No rules young fools coming from the old school, Taking on the world alone Next date can't wait, tearing up the interstate Ever place we played was home Balls out no doubt, this is what it's all about Beggin' for a place to play Swingin' with our low friends, prayin' that it never ends Wouldn't trade a single day Repeat Chorus 1 Hey it's still one big party You Can call it whatever you choose You make me feel like the old_____ stuff__________ is new Outro: n.c.
