Who's Gonna Fill Their Shoes

You know this old world is full of singers

But just a few are chosen

To tear your heart out when they sing

Imagine life without 'em

All your radio heroes

Like the outlaw that walks through Jesse's dream

No, there will never be another

Red-headed stranger

A Man in Black and Folsom Prison Blues

The Okie from Muskogee

Or Hello Darling

Lord, I wonder who's gonna fill their shoes

Who's gonna fill their shoes?

Who's gonna stand that tall?

Who's gonna play the Opry?

And the Wabash Cannonball?

Who's gonna give their heart and soul

To get to me and you?

Lord, I wonder who's gonna fill their shoes

God bless the boys from Memphis

Blue Suede Shoes and Elvis

Much too soon he left this world in tears

They tore up the '50s

Old Jerry Lee and Charlie

And Go Cat Go still echoes through the years

You know the heart of country music

Still beats in Luke the Drifter

You can tell it, when he sings I Saw the Light

Old Marty, Hank, and Lefty

Why, I can feel them right here with me

On this Silver Eagle rollin' through the night

Who's gonna fill their shoes

Who's gonna stand that tall?

Who's gonna play the Opry?

And the Wabash Cannonball?

Who's gonna give their heart and soul

To get to me and you?

Lord, I wonder, who's gonna fill their shoes

Yes, I wonder, who's gonna fill their shoes
