Big Ben came in puffin' back in 1963 He knew Denver Pyle and Willie, Big John, The Duke, and me We played every city on the land and on the sea He helped me be just what I am and all I wanna be He never played the guitar, he never played the flute Had a heart as big as Texas and a country soul to boot Ben always loved the ladies and his line was smooth as silk His aphrodisiac was cornbread, ice cold buttermilk Back then, I did some rollin' 'cause I was slow to learn Big Ben was always standing by when I would crash and burn When everything about me was scattered near and far He'd pack us up, sack us up, and load us in the car You can find him in the hotels, in the bus, and in the car You'll swear there's more than one Big Ben And one more where you are He's the talk around the campfires and the tale's gettin' mighty tall Big Ben's a living legend and he will outlive us all Well, here's to all the roadies You should know from which you came All you young road warriors and keepers of the flame There was one who walked before you The one who blazed the trail Here's to the good Ben Dorcy, the one that never failed Letras de cancionesHe could set 'em up, he could tune 'em up Break down and drive the car He did everything we couldn't do, we were busy being stars And you can find him in the hotels, in the bus, and in the car You'll swear there's more than one Big Ben And one more where you are He's the talk around the campfires and the tale's gettin' mighty tall Big Ben's a living legend and he will outlive us all Big Ben's a living legend and he will outlive us all From Letras Mania
