Текст песни: Country Music Heaven + перевод

And you know who greeted me at the Gate

The Old Blue Yodeler himself Jimmy Rodgers

He said to me «Bill, they asked me to show you around up here

And right over there is some of your old commodores

Man was I glad to see them

There was Ernest Tubb, Marty Robbins, Red Foley

Lefty Frizzell, Tennessee Ernie Ford

I dreamed I was there in Country Music Heaven

Oh, What a beautiful sight

He introduced me to Hank Williams and we saw Elvis

And then he showed me the Hall Of Fame

With all the gold guitars and fiddles hanging on the wall

And then he said, «Step over this way

There are some of your friends, I know you’ll want to see

They’re waiting for you»

And there they were standing side by side smiling at me

Tex Ritter, Johnny Horton, George Morgan

Dottie West and Keith Whitley

And then he said we got a big show up here tonight

And we have saved you a seat on the front row

Ah I sat and watched and listened

As Grant Turner introduced an all-star line up

Like none I’d ever seen

Roger Miller opened the show with Bob Wills and his Texas Playboys

Followed by Webb Pierce followed by Hawkshaw Hakins

Red Slovine, Carl and Pearl Butler, and Cowboy Copus

Lester Flat, Stringbean, Jimmy Gateley, Mel Street

Jim Reeves and Patsy Cline

I saw all the stars in Country Music Heaven

Oh, what a star studded night

Then I ask him who else he expected in the next say 100 years

Jimmy handed me a large book covered with stardust

He called it the big tally book

In it were many names

And each name was branded with pure gold

I began to read some of them as I turned the pages

Roy Acuff, Minnie Pearl, Eddy Aronld, Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson

Randy Travis, Garth Brooks Reba McIntire, Whispering Bill Anderson

Whispering Bill Anderson?

Ah, and that’s when I woke up

And I’m sorry I did

I dreamed I was there in Country Music Heaven

Oh, what a beautiful sight
