Well my daddy said girl if you want to go far
You'd better quit listenin' to that steel guitar
When you gonna stop all this foolishness?
Why can't you settle down like all the rest?
When are you gonna find something new?
I said I'm hanging by a string that's all I'm gonna do
Spend all my money on 45's
Emmylou Harris and Patsy Cline
I'll be a cowboy sweetheart wait and see
Watching Porter and Dolly on the color TV
I'll have those rhinestones before I'm through
We're hanging by a string that's all we're gonna do
Standing at the Grand Ole Opry
Dreaming 'bout that Opry stage
We'll be guitar swingin' singin' girls
Nothing better in this world
God bless Country and the USA
Now we travel around
In a Toyota Corolla
We're a two piece original folk rock band
We keep 'em dancing 'till last call
Spend all night staring at the hotel wall
But if ol' Hank done it Wishing Chair can too
You see we're hanging by a string
That's all we're gonna do
Standing at the Grand Ole Opry
Dreaming 'bout that Opry stage
We'll be guitar swingin' singin' girls
Nothing better in this world
God bless Country and the USA
