Thread Name: Lyr ADD: Redwing / Red Wing
Subject: Requesting Red Wing
On of the Saturday Bluegrass shows I watched on TV back in the early '60's the artists used the Red wing song. They re-worked the Lyrics for the "Red Wing Exterminating Company" as a sponsor (much like Flatt and Scruggs used the "Martha White" theme)
.
For the life of me I can't remember the artists, but it could have been the Osborn Brothers, Jim and Jessee, Louvin Brothers, or the Stanley Brothers. I grew up in eastern Tennessee and it might have been only broadcast in Tennessee.
.
It went something like this: .... something like that.
.
Somebody out there must remember these lyrics, I'm wanting our band to use it in a new "old Time Radio show" we are putting together.
.
help !!!
