This was one of my uncles favorite songs. When we had a celebration of life in his honor I did a funny bit to lighten up the mood a bit “🎼 Now I remember very well the day ole Eddy died, the women folk looked sorry but the men stood ‘round and cried. Now Eddies up on a mantle and he sets there all alone, they put a pipe beside him and a tire for a stone🎼”. He was a plumber who was once a mechanic.
I started to reply that this song was popularized by a bluegrass band from The Andy Griffith Show named The Dillards. They're quite good and a REAL bluegrass band. I used to have their CD simply called "The Dillards". Of course "Dooley" was on it!
me too. just a Kaintucky-boy who flew the big jets but after 37 years with the airline based at NewarkLiberty Intl,i figure i,ve done my share and made my fortune.....time to retire and go back to the hills where i came from.
What my heart wouldn't give to have a girlfriend as cute and talented as her. Kristen.... You are Beautiful and so good at pickin... could listen to you all day...
Yi ha. I love my people My dad was lewis co and my mom was mason co. Kentucky.This is good pickin .They loved this song and so do I Bill,Cincinnati Ohio.
I saw them 2 times at Randy Wood's pickin' parlor in Bloomingdale, GA hung out with Terry after show we talked about the Andy Griffith TV show episode, "the Mayberry band" a great musician & even greater human being
I can tell what the words are! When the "Darling boys" on the "Andy Griffith Show" do it I can't tell half of the words compared to this. Big thumbs up guys!
I really love this song, I should make clear ; and the tune is no doubt older; a well done job here all round! Please keep up the good work, from a Swamp Yankee*, true and proud! *poor country folk in New England -- we exist!
He's fakin on that fiddle cause this is in... I think B. Very nicely done besides, and I'm not takin' him down for it. He's good, but B is a BUTT on that fiddle.
@@bbb8997 I don't have any. That doesn't invalidate anything I said.... Like, it's not even an appropriate turn around because I wasn't claiming to do or be better or even tearing the man down... So I don't really know where you're going with this non-sequitor, because even though attacking me, which this is, is a common distraction technique, it doesn't fit because right now we're talking about you, NOT HIM. You went sideways on your redirect. You want a mulligan so you can try again?
