Thread Name: Lyr Req: The Men in My Little Girl's Life
Subject: RE: the men in my little girl's life
Two of my favorite Tex Ritter songs are:
The Men In My Little Girl's Life/Candy, Dean & Shain
and
Just Beyond The Moon/Jeremy Slate [actor/writer]
Few people have heard this side of Tex Ritter.
And two of my favorite Red Sovine songs are:
Daddy's Girl
and
It'll Come Back
(not forgetting Teddy Bear, Giddy-up Go, Phantom 309)
and another country great - often maligned, is Grandpa Jones:
The Battle Of King's Mountain (aka Sweet Lips), a heart rending
story of America's battle for independence from England.
and
The King Of Cannon County Hills.
Porter Wagoner could tell a terriffic story also:
Pastor Absent On Vacation
Trouble In The Amen Corner
and I could list a hundred more tear-jerkin' classics of yesteryear .....
