Hope you enjoy it's Grand Old Opry Time. Another big folk music show starring Cowboy Koopas. When the water they looked proud of me or the sand clocks were filled with one regret Looking backward through the silence where he spent Happy hour Happy hour Making love to every pretty girl in there Went up step through the pool Favor with his bright eyes all the glow over said tag I looked at my gal's photograph and the fairies gathered round him Just to look upon her face Smiling face and he said I love the dark face Filipino She's a Filipino baby She's a savior and my pet loves and pen a teeth off rags and pretty and her hair is black as Jen oh, it's all sweet and honey and her heart is too know Yes, I know and he said I love my dark grace Philip be old. And the may he whispered Darling, I've come back from Carolina, South Carolina I've come back to claim the only girl I love and that night there was a wedding While the gift together drowned all around and he read his little Philippines baby He's a philosophy no, baby she's my savior and my pet love her teeth are bright and pretty and her hair is like his head oh, it's so sweet as honey and her heart is here I know Yes, I know Here it goes. And he said I love my dark face Philippine. Well, thanks. Thanks for watching the great Big Alley. To all our good friends and neighbors of the Grand Ole Opry. And from the looks of the crowd here at the Ryman in Nashville, Tennessee, I'd say the friends and neighbors were out in full force. Cowboy copa to see and hear you. Rob Brassfield, Minnie Pearl, the Old Hickory Singer, Stringbean and the entire Oscar gang. Yeah, and you can be pretty sure that there's a mighty big following from Polk County, Texas, here to say howdy to their favorite drum, Moon Monica. Well, Moon will be coming around the mountain in just a little while, friends. Just as soon as we've heard the latest from the gossip of Grinder Switch herself.

Here she is, Cousin Minnie Podcast. I remember not long ago, there was a girl that grinded this witch. Her name is Bedelia Birchbuster, and she wanted to get a new foundation. She's built this like a house. I think that girl is really happy. Uncle Nabob says Virginia's one of them gals that's all Hills and no valleys. But Virginia got herself one of them foundation garments that's supposed to give an hourglass figure. She got it on, she said to her husband, she said, she, how do you like my hourglass figures? He says, well, if that's a hourglass figure, I never know time to drag.
- [04:07]
B
So
- [04:09]
C
I tell you, you grow up with nice figures. Now, if you want to catch a feller, it ain't no crime to figure on your figure. I say, use what Mother Nature give you before Father Time messes it up.
- [04:25]
B
Now, wait till. Now, wait just a minute, Cousin Minnie. There are other things besides the feminine figure that attract the men. The way a girl is dressed, for instance.
- [04:41]
C
Well, that just proves my point, Copus. The necklines are going down and the hemlines are coming up. Dr. Nabob says if the necklines get any further south and the hemlines get any further north, there's gotta be a new Mason Dixon line.
- [05:03]
B
Hey, Cousin Lenny, I saw your Uncle Nay Bob in town today.
- [05:06]
C
Well, how did he look? Where was he?
- [05:08]
B
Oh, he was awful polite, you know. He was in the cafe and I rushed in there for a quick cup of coffee. And you know what your uncle said?
- [05:15]
C
What did he say?
- [05:16]
B
Here, take my coffee. It's already saucered and blown.
- [05:19]
C
Isn't that coffee? It's a nice.
- [05:23]
B
Oh, he was all dressed up. Said he'd been to the photographer's to have his picture cut.
- [05:27]
C
Yes, that's so thoughty of Uncle Nabob. He's gonna get his picture cook and give it to Aunt Ambrosey fur Christmas present.
- [05:36]
B
Oh, Christmas present.
- [05:37]
C
Yes.
- [05:38]
B
Is it a surprise? It sure is. She's expecting a fur coat.
- [05:44]
C
But I tell you, I got some news here from Grindr Switch brother. My brother got him a new job last week, but he had to quit on account of illness. The boss got sick of him. This is your degeneration. Now, I'm telling you, even at Grinder Switch, these here young UN's, they're awful. Why, the other day, the teacher asked Jed Baker's little old young un, that youngest one. The teacher asked young Brindle Baker what legs was. And Brindle says, legs is something that if you ain't got two pretty good ones, you can't get the first base. And neither can your sister. Well, I don't know what I'm gonna do about my fellow Hesse. I told him the other night I was buying some lipstick that you can see in the dark. He said, don't waste your money. He said, don't you know that half the fun Is looking for it. We had an awful sad thing happen at Grinders Switch his sweet. Oh, it was awful. Old Pap Winkle, he went over to the rock quarry where they are over there blasting out some of the rock over there. Old Pep Winkles, he went in the little shanty they had there and he sat down on a keg and lit up his cob pipe. And a fellow run in there and yelled, hey Pap, you're setting on a keg of dynamite. Then old Pep says, well, I'll be blowed. And sure enough he was.

A few weeks ago, Roy Acuff took his fine bunch of performers to Korea to entertain the troops over there. And as a sort of an extra special attraction, he took along the young fellow we've got here tonight as our extra special attraction. Here he is, neighbors, the piano playing a singlest man we know. Moo Mulligan.
- [07:38]
C
Yes sir,
- [07:43]
B
Glad to have you, Moo. But before you commence beating the fool out of that tall piano there, how about telling us a little bit about your trip to Korea? Kobe. It's a great big pleasure. We had a wonderful time over there with all the guys. We played with some possibly around a couple of hundred thousand boys while we was over in Korea. We had a wonderful time. I wouldn't take nothing for the experience. I'd like to urge all of our kind of folks, all the folk music field and anybody that hasn't been over there to say hello to them, to please go by and say hello to these guys. Well everybody, it sure was fine of you to go Moon. And I know that the boys appreciated it just a whole heap. But now that you're back and here with us tonight, what are you going to sing first, Moon? Let's do one of our old favorites called the Cherokee Boogie. Well, that couldn't be better. That's played and sung by moon Monitor. Well, with Polly Jackson doing the Simpson and Ernie Newton, Jerry Bird, Grady Martin, Nita Kerr and Randy Hughes helping out. Here's a good old fashioned choir dance for y'. Everybody is having a good time.
- [10:39]
C
Yes sir.

B
That's cousin Nita Cordon in the background. Friends, so that's our signal to sing one of the fine old sacred songs. One requested by our good buddy Moon Mulligan. Here it is, titled I saw the Light. I wondered. No English. Life filled with sin I wouldn't let my dear savior in Then Jesus came like a stranger in the night Praise the Lord. I saw the light I saw the light I saw the light no more darkness, no more time Now I'm so happy no sorrow in FL I saw the light. Just like the fool I wandered Afraid is the gate and narrow the way Now I have prayed at the wrong for the right Praise the Lord I saw the light I saw the light I saw the light no more darkness, no more night Now I'm so happy no sorrow in black Praise the Lord I saw the light. The old Hickory Singers are up next and that means we're in for some mighty enjoyable old time harmony tonight. The boys are singing in a little red barn. In a little red barn On a farm down Indiana Let the name I'm back on attack on new morning. And my heart is fine through it too and my heart wants to take a more cheek where the war breaks me this day much more I'm pining for a yellow moon that's shining On a little red barn On a farm down Indiana way. Night with a fun. Street where the wall makes me display a small I'm pining for a yellow moon that's shiny On a little ring hard On a farm down in the air down in the way. Well, the noon bus from Hoyn Wall, Tennessee led its most important passenger out in front of the Ryman this afternoon. And so we're about to hear some pretty fancy tales from Rod Brassf.

Of course. She's big and fat. Hope. All she has to do is just walk right fast, stop that sudden and just let nature take its. Ah, thank you, Ron.
