Now I know you don't [G] know this, this is strictly unrehearsed.
It could be a [A#] train wreck.
I made [G] this paper one time up in Stanley, Virginia.
[F#] [N] And it was on the main street.
The whole main street was full.
And I said I want an audience, somebody from the audience, to come up and say [G#] thanks on this.
Well there happened to be a guy down there that really, I said now I can teach you how to do this in about 30 [N] seconds.
And everybody started laughing.
And I thought what in the world they laughing at?
I ain't even started yet.
And come to find out this man that had volunteered to come, he was walking up the steps, whizzed up in the balcony,
on the main street, all them people watching us.
And this man whispered in my ear and said, you know what Mr.
Dixon said, you're in trouble.
I said how come?
He said this man has never spoke a word [A#] in his life.
And I'm going to [Bm] teach him how to sing.
[N] 30 seconds.
Folks, I'm telling you this and I ain't stretching it.
The guy sounded sort of like one of those machines, but he was actually singing this song.
And then the crowd went crushing.
But anyway, when I tap you on the shoulder right here, all you got to do is say amen in bass.
Amen.
I mean, I just got to turn [G] it.
And again, taps you over there, you say Peter was a bad one.
Peter [D] was a fireball.
[N] It's going to be good folks.
Now you know whose place he's taken?
When we recorded this record, as far as I know, the world don't know this, but as far as I know, it can remember,
I believe this was the last song that George Johnson ever sang.
[E] And he sang it with the Easter Brothers and he was singing bass.
And about two weeks later, I found out that [A] he passed away.
It could have been his last song.
[Bm] And I hope you'll enjoy as he [N] takes George's place.
You forgot about that.
I did say that.
