Panamama (Hank Snow) | Grand Ole Opry (02-20-54)

Access to affordable credit helps me pay my employees, but I don't really need it.

Infliction is killing me!

What do cares?

Big retailers are making record profits!

That's why we support the Durban Martial Credit Card Bill!

See?

Things in credit unions help small businesses make payroll.

This bill would cut the vital resources they need.

While increasing Megastore profits.

They deserve it.

Don't they?

Tell Congress, stop the Durban Martial Money Grab for corporate megastores.

Paid for it by the Electronic Payments Coalition.

Welcome to the old-time radio westerns.

I'm your host Angelines, and let's get into this episode.

This episode's going to be Grand Old Opera.

Hope you enjoy.

You happy as long as you live.

And how all the nice things that I could give.

This is WSM, the National Life and Accident Insurance Company,

Nashville, Tennessee, presenting the Grand Old Opera.

Visit to Nashville isn't complete unless you see Harvest,

the most talk-tov store in the sub.

Youngsters love the fun mirrors,

live muckies, merry-go-round horses, elephant slides.

Everybody loves the escalators at Harvest.

Everybody agrees it's fun to shop at Harvest,

Nashville's largest store.

Remember Harvest is open every Monday and Friday night till 9 o'clock.

The sun-shining birds are singing and all feels right in the world.

Direct from the rival auditorium in Nashville, Tennessee,

it's Rendon Upree Time Storing, Hank Snow.

Woo!

Woo!

I went to Panama to find out why it's all the tourometer goes on.

The senior eaters there have so much childhood,

they could even mill a heart of stone.

After Miley Garell, she flashed me a smile

and I lost my heart right there.

I thought I'd only stay down there for a day

now I think I'll never leave again.

In Panama, those Panama mums,

they live the life of a beautiful dream.

Your life's a waste until you get a taste out of the thrill

and you get from a topical dream.

I kinda get me straight, I think they'd read those gals

from Tennessee.

But when they say CCM, Panama and the thrill is really different to me.

Find me all another, comes down there,

they live just for tonight.

Find me all another, comes down there,

they live just for tonight.

I take her in my arms beneath the beautiful palm

and it's heaven when I hold her tight.

In Panama, those Panama mums,

they live the life of a beautiful dream.

Your life's a waste until you get a taste out of the thrill

and you get from a topical dream.

Prince Albert is tobacco as nature meant tobacco to be

The one and only the big time the Anaman from Port County moved my again

They take out across the ocean blue

I sail my ship alone for all the sails you've put

And if it starts to sink then I'll blame you

We've been sweet hearts for so long but now you save it too

The love we shared is just a memory

I had built a ship of dreams and planned them all for you

But now I guess what is to be with me

The only man who can follow Mr. Moon is the sagebrush of Hornwall, Tennessee

And here he is to tell all Rob Brasphine

Thank you, man!

I got her last note!

That's fine, I appreciate that!

Hi, Mr. Snow!

I'm glad to see you, Rob!

Do you know that Monday is Washington's birthday?

It is!

Oh, Declare, I'm sure glad you reminded me of that Mr. Snow

Why?

I forgot to change him a present!

You know something, I just kidding, I'm a student of Washington

I know everything has to be known about him

Is that right?

Well, I'll be going on

Tell me why Washington didn't sit down when he crossed the Delaware in a rowboat

That's easy, Mr. Hank!

It is!

His bridge is just too dead-busted tight

I tell you one thing, Hank!

George Washington couldn't throw a silver dollar across your Potomac River today

Now, why couldn't Washington throw a dollar across the Potomac today?

Because the dollar just don't go as far as now as you did back in him days

Last year I had the pleasure of visiting Washington's monument

Say, that's quite high, isn't it?

Yeah, it's high, yeah, it's a welfare, real high

I wonder just how he got down after he finished it

You know, Rob, that's what I like about you, you are so patriotic

Yeah, very patriotic

What do you mean by that?

Well, on Washington's birthday, you're using Lincoln's joke

Yeah!

Lincoln's joke!

Come here, come here!

Speaking about old jokes, how is your girlfriend, Susan?

Well, she's doing fine, Mr. Snow, she's doing fine

She's been down on the forum working just like a horse

Doing what?

Pulling the snow plow

That hard work is part of her three-day reducing dodge

Yeah, she's on the dot

Yeah, the first day she lost four inches off of her waist

Oh, good!

And the second day she lost eight inches off of her waist

What happened to third day?

She lost her girdle

But she sure do look good now

Yeah, she looks great now, especially her legs

Oh, is that right?

She's got the kind of legs that attract men

Good

You know, they're shaped like a magnet

You know, Rob, I've come to the conclusion that you'd make some gallop generous husband

Well, now that's nice of you to say that, huh?

Thank you very much

You know, when I get married, my wife's going to have a limousine

and furs and just plenty of money

And when do you intend to get married?

When I find a gallop, it's got a limousine furs and plenty of money

I don't plan

Well, I've got to go downtown and do a little shopping

Hank, I've got to go buy me some new clothes

Why? What happened to your old clothes?

The mall said them up

You mean the malls were eating your clothes?

What is it?

They didn't even look up when I opened the closet door

Well, tell me, Rodley, what part did the eat?

What part did the eat?

Yeah

Well, I put it geographically

Yeah

That's solid self

Just ate solid no more

You know, Mr. Hank, I've got to go

But before I go with it, Bill, right with you

If I said hello to my good old friend and buddy, Ms. Minnie

Pearl out there and hide the hotel

Why, you go right ahead

Hide the mini

I'll do something down with you

See me back there

You didn't know I used to court many days

Oh, that's news to me

Yeah, I used to go with Minnie

I used to spark her all the time

Yeah

She had a little brother

He just knocked that high

The mini's little dick unto everything

Me, huh?

Every time I go to see Minnie, he'd do something to tell me if I didn't give him a nickel

I had fur

Yeah, no

But a lot of times I didn't have no nickel

I know what you mean

Well, sure, I don't know where I want to run in

He's got one in Brad

Big old Bill poster's tax

And put it right in the set fee

Where Minnie always set this far today

You're the mean one, wasn't it?

Yeah, and you had the business end of it up

Who, brother?

I went in there and popped down on it

Are you talking about taxes on your real estate and automobile, brother?

You wait until it hits your personal property

Friends, let's call that pretty little guest of ours out here again

Miss Goldie Hill, how about it?

And Goldie wanted to get for our good friends and neighbors this time

One call I'm yesterday

That's our real brother

You told me lies as my story eyes

Let's stop it at my station

You painted scenes

And lovely dreams with all of your temptations

You spoke of things

Life waiting rings

And promise me the world

We're no cause at all

You let me fall

And now I'm yesterday's dirt

Don't you sometimes feel

That love is real

And the forever saying lies

Love one wrong man

You gave the chance

To be your daring wife

To see that light

You made me cry

And promise me the world

I love you best

But like the rest

I'm the love

You're yesterday's dirt

You make it smile

You learn the heart of a girl

Who's lived you care

Was it just a game

And my name

You've broken hearted limbs

You love me long

You love me wrong

And promise me the world

That I came to be just a member

And another yesterday's dirt

When the autumn falls

And you recall

The things that might have been

Then you will fall

And see the farce

That's deep within

Each bridge you've run

There's no regard

You're living a lonely world

And you'll never be

Where you think of me

And just a yesterday's dirt

And at the console of his mighty five-string band

Joe, Grandpa Jones

Go do it, Jonesy

Fly around my prairie to the mid

Fly around my DJs

Fly around my prairie to the mid

Let me crazy

Fly, could you think my prairie to the mid

I can't live without you

But let you know me before I go

Give it in about you

Fly around my prairie to the mid

Fly around my DJs

Fly around my prairie to the mid

And hand it in my hand

Popping cold on my own feet

River cold with brandy

Rocks in the mountains

Cause we're going down

Don't weep the sand

Fly around my prairie to the mid

Fly around my DJs

Fly around my prairie to the mid

You're almost having pain

Every time I go that road

Look so dark and cloudy

Every time I see that yellow

It's still me having

Fly around my prairie to the mid

Fly around my DJs

Fly around my prairie to the mid

You're almost having pain

Put my mask on my back

Travel on my shoulder

Much to wait a mexico

Down be a soldier

Fly around my prairie to the mid

Fly around my DJs

Fly around my prairie to the mid

You're almost having pain

Fly around my prairie to the mid

Fly around my DJs

Fly around my prairie to the mid

You're almost having pain
