Smiling Bill Mccall - The Hit Crew (热歌组合)[00:00:00]
Well the whole town listened to the radio[00:00:05]
For the Smiling Bill McCall Show[00:00:07]
Everyone in Nashville[00:00:10]
Was listenin' to Bill[00:00:12]
I don't want to be layin' in bed[00:00:14]
When they pronounce me dead[00:00:16]
He'd stand and breathe in the microphone[00:00:19]
With his guitar hangin' to his knee bone[00:00:22]
All the girls just sat and dreamed[00:00:24]
When Bill began his sing[00:00:27]
I don't want my hat to be hung[00:00:29]
When my last song is sung[00:00:31]
But he never let fame go to his head[00:00:34]
"This is Smiling Bill McCall" he said[00:00:37]
"Gonna pick and sing a song or two[00:00:39]
You all listen till I'm through"[00:00:41]
And if you're at the house or in your car[00:00:43]
Tune in this time tomorrow[00:00:46]
To all the boys he was a big hero[00:00:49]
They'd glue their ears to the radio[00:00:51]
Then talkin' a most unusual drawl[00:00:53]
Imitatin' Bill McCall[00:00:56]
Daddy can I get me a guitar[00:00:58]
'Cause I want to be a star[00:01:00]
The girls would say of Bill McCall[00:01:04]
Why I bet he's over six feet tall[00:01:06]
Handsomest man in Nashville[00:01:09]
They said of Smiling Bill[00:01:10]
He won't be plantin' potato slips[00:01:13]
When he cashes in his chips[00:01:15]
Then one day Bill didn't make the show[00:01:18]
Didn't even show up for a week or so[00:01:21]
The station's boss said to city hall[00:01:23]
"Find Smiling Bill McCall"[00:01:25]
It won't be hard to track him down[00:01:27]
He's got the biggest feet in town[00:01:30]
Well there's a creek that runs through Nashville[00:01:33]
And on the bank they found Smiling Bill[00:01:35]
He's committin' suicide[00:01:38]
But they grabbed him before he tried[00:01:39]
"Turn me loose I want to jump" he screamed[00:01:42]
"'Cause I can't stand that theme"[00:01:44]
Let this be my final breath[00:01:47]
'Cause I'm scared to half to death"[00:01:49]
The big brave Smiling Bill McCall[00:01:51]
Is only four feet tall[00:01:53]
I'd rather be in the river dead[00:01:56]
Than to hear 'em laughin' at my bald head[00:01:58]
