Bobs Got A Swing Band In Heaven Song

They thrilled all the folks down in Texas

And then Oklahoma heard their western swing

The miles folks traveled made no difference

Cause they came to dance and hear those fiddles sing

They took their songs to the coast of California

And then New York City heard their fiddles cry

The world will not forget the Texas Playboys

Cause the songs they played and sang will never die

And now Bob’s got a swing band in heaven

And they play while Sleepy’s banjo rings

The Lord said Bob I’ve brought you Keith and Jesse

Now they fiddle while old Tommy Duncan sings

Bob’s got a swing band in heaven

And they play while Sleepy’s banjo rings

The Lord said Bob I’ve brought you Keith and Jesse

They play Faded Love while Tommy Duncan sings

There’s a steel guitar with silver strings for Leon

A piano’s there for Al with golden keys

The rims of Smokey’s drums are made with halos

And there’s a bow with angel hair for Johnny Lee

Our band is not complete without a bass man

Oh how Joe Franks bass fills all the holes

The angels love to sing with Elvin’s sweet guitar

And Gimble’s fiddle waits beside the throne
