Thanks Masato and all the others, the christmas has started here
In Iceland it did at 18:00 hours to day.
We ring them in at six a clock.
So we are having a good meal and giving gifts and then we
rest and so on.
All the best Skarpi Iceland.

'Tennessee Flat-Top Box' - Johnny Cash [RealAudio] form The Record Lady's All-Time Country Favorites.

TENNESSE FLAT-TOP BOX

In a little cabaret in a South Texas border town,
Sat a boy and his guitar, and the people came from all around.
And all the girls from there to Austin
Were slippin' away from home and puttin' jewelry in hock.
To take the trip, to go and listen,
To the little dark-haired boy who played the Tennessee flat top box.

And he would play: (Instrumental.)

Well, he couldn't ride or wrangle, and he never cared to make a dime.
But give him his guitar, and he'd be happy all the time.
And all the girls from nine to ninety,
Were snapping fingers, tapping toes, and begging him: "Don't stop."
And hypnotized and fascinated
By the little dark-haired boy who played the Tennessee flat top box.

And he would play: (Instrumental.)

Then one day he was gone, and no one ever saw him 'round,
He'd vanished like the breeze, and they forgot him in the little town.
But all the girls still dreamed about him.
And hung around the cabaret until the doors were locked.
And then one day on the Hit Parade
Was a little dark-haired boy who played the Tennessee flat top box.

And he would play: (Instrumental.)
