Leon Russell - Uncle Pen lyrics
[Leon Russell - Uncle Pen lyrics]
They'd dance all night till the break of day
When the caller hollered, "Do-se do"
They knew it was time for Uncle Pen to go
Late in the evening about sundown
High on the hills and above the town
Uncle Pen played the fiddle, lord
He had it ring you could hear it talk
You could hear it sing
He played an old piece
He called "Soldier's Joy"
And the one called "The Boston Boy"
But the greatest of all was "Jenny Lynn"
To me that is where the fiddle begins
Late in the evening about sundown
High on the hills and above the town
Uncle Pen played the fiddle, lord
He had it ring you could hear it talk
You could hear it sing
I'll never forget that mournful day
When Uncle Pen was called away
He hung up his fiddle, he hung up his bow
He knew it was time for him to go
Late in the evening about sundown
High on the hills and above the town
Uncle Pen played the fiddle, lord
He had it ring you could hear it talk
You could hear it sing
Late in the evening about sundown
High on the hills and above the town
Uncle Pen played the fiddle, lord
He had it ring you could hear it talk
You could hear it sing
