Hey Cecil it’s alright, the Dude abides there's no more Sleepless Nights
We’re Safe at Home and no longer Exiled on Main Street
Hey Cecil, Don’t you fret. You haven’t been forgotten yet
You’re top of mind as we pass the time
We’re Safe at Home and no longer Exiled on Main Street
Hey Cecil, Don’t you fret. You haven’t been forgotten yet
You’re top of mind as we pass the time
singing Sweetheart of the Rodeo
“Coon Dog” Conners died on Christmas Day
Two years later Cecil changed his name
Three Bands later Harvard’s not the same
And four men in a Submarine sail for LA
“Coon Dog” Conners died on Christmas Day
Two years later Cecil changed his name
Three Bands later Harvard’s not the same
And four men in a Submarine sail for LA
So far from Georgia and New Orleans,
The citrus fields squeezed beyond their means
The birds fly southward on burrito wings
As Etheridge, Sneaky Pete and Hillman sing
Hey Cecil it’s alright, the Dude abides there's no more Sleepless Nights
We’re Safe at Home and no longer Exiled on Main Street
Hey Cecil, don’t you fret. You haven’t been forgotten yet
You’re top of mind as we pass the time
singing Sweetheart of the Rodeo
Honeymoon at Disneyland and who could tell
How far in three years the grievous angel fell
Room 8 at the Joshua Tree Motel
It’s the closest that you ever came to fame’s farewell
I heard Emmy singing sweet and low
If there ever was a Sweetheart of the Radio
She’s the bittersweet reminder Hickory Winds still blow
God’s Own Singer still the richest one I know
Hey Cecil it’s alright, the Dude abides and it’s Saturday night
We’re Safe at Home and no longer Exiled on Main Street
Hey Cecil don’t you fret. You haven’t been forgotten yet
You’re top of mind as we pass the time
Honeymoon at Disneyland and who could tell
How far in three years the grievous angel fell
Room 8 at the Joshua Tree Motel
It’s the closest that you ever came to fame’s farewell
I heard Emmy singing sweet and low
If there ever was a Sweetheart of the Radio
She’s the bittersweet reminder Hickory Winds still blow
God’s Own Singer still the richest one I know
Hey Cecil it’s alright, the Dude abides and it’s Saturday night
We’re Safe at Home and no longer Exiled on Main Street
Hey Cecil don’t you fret. You haven’t been forgotten yet
You’re top of mind as we pass the time
singing Sweetheart of the Rodeo
Gram, you're still the man
Who put the twang in Rock & Roll
