Dusty! Dusty! Dusty!

Let's do it!

When you hear twin fiddles

And a steel guitar

You're listening to the sound

Of the American heart

And Opry music on a Saturday night

Brings a smile to your face

And a tear to your eye

Sing a song about the heartland

The only place I feel at home

Sing about the way a good man

Works until the daylight's gone

Sing the rain on the

roof on a summer night

Where they still know

wrong from right

Sing a song about the heartland

Sing a song about my life

Sing a song about the heartland

The only place I feel at home

Sing about the way a good man

Works until the daylight's gone

Sing the rain on the roof

On a summer night

Where they still know

wrong from right

Sing a song about the heartland

Sing a song about my life

Hey

All you know-it-all lovers

Better heed some advice

If you're bad to your baby

You better think twice

Love don't come easy

Love ain't blind

You've got to show her you love her

Morning and night

Be there for her just

to make things right

Make her believe

Till there ain't a doubt in her mind

The women sure love

him, don't they?

Everybody loves him.

Yeah.

They sure do.

Tell her a lie

Bring her red roses

When she's blue

Yeah! Heh, heh. Yeah!

Give her the best of

What you've got to give

You'll be together

Thanks for the interview, Lula.

Tell Dusty I'll pick up the second

half in Shreveport, will you, please?

Absolutely. Bye.

And she'll baby you

Better baby your baby

With a love that's strong

Hold her and tell her

You'll never do wrong

Better baby your baby

'Cause if you don't

One day your baby will be gone

Better baby your baby

With a love that's strong

Hold her and tell her

You'll never do wrong

Better baby your baby

Look at them.

He could stand there and look

cross-eyed and they'd still scream.

- Did you play him my song?

- I told you I would.

When?

When the time is right.

And when will that be?

When I say.

Mm. I'll be in Dusty's bus...

if anybody wants me.

- I can do something about that.

- Ahh!

You bet I'm not

Where the side walk ends

You left a lot

Yeah, Dusty!

As long as I can last

Whistles still blowing

But the train is gone

Ain't no wheels gonna take me

From my home

Where the sidewalk ends

And the road begins

We said goodbye on

a cold dark night

Where the side walk ends

And the road begins

We said goodbye

On a cold dark night

I'm not afraid to go

You bet I'm not

Where the side walk

ends, you left a lot

Where the sidewalk

ends you left a lot

Where the sidewalk

ends you left a lot

God bless!

We're bringing him in. Get ready.

You killed them tonight, boss.

Yeah, great show. Better

than ever. Incredible sound.

Come on, that's all. That's all.

What?

Heh. What?

You all right?

It's all that damn smoke.

It was a great show

tonight, don't you think?

Bobby Louis went on and

on about that interview.

Lula, Bobby Louis is a jerk.

We need him.

He's gonna give you good

publicity for your new record.

Hey, Earl and I wrote a really nice

song. We're thinking maybe...

we'd like to simplify the

arrangements on this new album.

That reminds me...

I got a new song I want you

to try out next few nights.

I think it's gonna

be your new single.

Come on, give a listen.

I just said I had some new

ideas for this album.

When he first approached

me, I said no...

but this song's really something.

- Who?

- Huh?

- Who?

- Oh, um...

Buddy Jackson.

Buddy Jackson?

With the road crew?

Yes. With the road crew.

Hey. I don't remember you being much

more than road crew when I found you.

Couldn't draw more than 20 people.

I had good taste then, didn't I?

Like a pony express in

the wild, wild west

I'll ride hard all night long

And I can saddle up fast,

Get you there first class

Long before the dawn

You know your mail's gonna get to you

Come snow, rain, sleet or hail

'Cause I'm a top

flight, hold-you-tight

Get-you-there-by-daylight,

Do-you-right overnight male.

Ho! Hold it, now!

- Hold it!

- Come back here!

Buddy?

That's great. That's great.

- Thank you, man.

- That's not exactly what I had in mind.

- What's not?

- It just needs...

- It just needs more... More energy.

- More energy?

Top flight, hold me tight

- See what I mean?

- More energy. More energy.

All right. What else?

Then we bring in the strings.

Bring in the horns.

It's gonna sound great.

We'll bring the strings

and the horns in.

- Accordion.

- Heh, heh, heh.

How about the accordion?

No accordion?

No accordion.

What else?

- That's it. It'll sound great.

- That's it?

- Thank you, man. We'll work on it.

- Go ahead, now.

Thank you so much.

- It'll sound great.

- Thanks a bunch.

Get him out of here.

Come over here. Come on.

Come on. I want to talk to you.

Whoo. What a nerd.

Let me be your mailman

And I'll always come through

There's no denyin',

Come rain or shine

I'll deliver my love to you

I do things by the letter,

You can put your stamp on me

Don't you ever, ever do that again.

Do what again?

You really don't know, do you?

He is the big star.

You are the road crew.

- I won't be if that song...

- You will if you don't listen to me.

Now you are a very talented guy.

And you're a cute one too.

There are a lot of talented cute

guys dying to be where he's at.

I got him there.

I can get you there too.

You just gotta listen to me.

Okay?
