The Oak Ridge Boys - An Old Time Family Bluegra** Band lyrics

We catch our memories wandering through the past from time to time As a mountain families' music fills again inside our mind We dream about Euganean Hills and West Virginian land And an old time family blue gra** band. Our God fearing mum and daddy raised us young ‘uns on a song By the banks where old new river gently sways and rolled along Where once upon a time there dwelled a close knit mountain clan An old time family blue gra** band. You never heard the like of melodies our family played The guitar kept the rhythm as the fiddle sawed away We recall a banjo ringing and a singing mandolin In an old time family blue gra** band. Daddy slapped the upright, mamma strummed the other part We couldn't read the music we just played it all by heart Lord how those songs just flowed across that fertile mountain land In an old time family blue gra** band. I see us sitting round the porch on starry summer nights I remember how the music made my world seem good and right When all the folks would raise their happy voices and join in With the old time family blue gra** band. You never heard the like of melodies our family played The guitar kept the rhythm as the fiddle sawed away We recall a banjo ringing and a singing mandolin In an old time family blue gra** band. Yes an old time family blue gra** band.
