Legends (What If) Songtext
von Dale Watson

What if no more branded man?
No more man in black (whoo!)
What if no more possum?
No more Georgie Jones?

Picture a world without
Willy or waving around
When all our legends are gone

Each time, one slips away
We say, "Man, they were great"
Wish I went to see them on their last show

Ready, oh man, bury them
While they′re here, let's cherish them
Before all our legends are gone
′Cause the clock is tickin'

Kitty and Loretta
And Tammy, let's not forget her
Jerry Lee and Ray Price
They′re still goin′ strong


Picture a world without
Hank Thompson, Charlie Pride or Buck around
When all our legends are gone

Each time, one slips away
We say, "Man, they were great"
Wish I went to see them on their last show

Ready, oh man, bury them
While they're here, let′s cherish them
Before all our legends are gone
Let's help all our living legends live on

Thank you (whoo!)
There′s a legend, right?

My favorite record, uh
And it's hard to pack that down
But, but uh, is- I had one record
I guess, I′d probably take the Nightlife album
By Ray Price (wow)
And uh, it has this song on it called
Bright Lights and Blonde-Haired Women
Butcha, ain't bad
