George Jones - I Wanta Sing lyrics

I wanta sing About the things that make me happy I wanta sing About my brother and my mother and my sister and my pappy I wanta sing About the things that make me happy But most of all I wanta sing about you I picked up my first guitar when I was just eleven Listened to them grand old opry shows Well, I cut my teeth on gospel songs and good old country fair My favorites then were Acuff and Bill Monroe What a beautiful thought I am thinkin' Conserning that great speckled bird Blue moon of Kentucky keep on shining They were the sweetest songs I ever heard I wanta sing about The thing that make me happy I wanta sing about My brother and my mother and my sister and my pappy I wanta sing about The thing that make me happy But most of all I wanta sing about you I travel all over the world singing good old country music It makes me feel so good to hear them cheer Some like for me to sing the hits I do on the Grand Ole Opry And after all that's why were really here Well, my favorite songs that are sung today Are like Rivelle and Williams Boy, oh boy, they really were the best And when they sang their songs People laughed and cried by millions And here's the ones today they all request Always late with your kisses But your cheating heart will tell on you I love you, I'll prove it a thousand ways And that's why I got the lovesick blues I wanta sing about The thing that make me happy I wanta sing about My brother and my mother and my sister and my pappy I wanta sing about The thing that make me happy But most of all I wanta sing about you Yeah, most of all I wanta sing about you
