When I was just a little boy we lived down on a farm Seven miles from nowhere and a hundred miles from harm We made our livin from the dirt if anything would grow And we got our country music from a big old radio And we had Bill Monroe for breakfast every day Then wed head out to the fields a hoein corn and mowin hay Aw mama loved his singin daddy loved to hear him play And we had Bill Monroe for breakfast every day fiddle mandolin We had a big old battery that ran the radio Sometimes we run it down a listenin to the Opry Show But we all had our instruments and most of us could play So we had Bill Monroe for breakfast anyway We had Bill Monroe for breakfast... Mama was a lady and my daddy liked to preach All we ever had was just a place to eat and sleep If I could go back home again back to the simple ways Oh wed have Bill Monroe for breakfast every day We had Bill Monroe for breakfast... We had Bill Monroe for breakfast every dayYou might also like
