The Grandest Lady Of Them All





She’s never in the spotlight

But everybody knows she’s the star

And once she shines upon you

She’ll make you truly proud of where you are

She’ll wipe away the pain of all the dues you had to pay

When the curtain to her world starts to unfold

With mother - tender hands she will applaud and feed the hunger in your soul



And she’s known as the Grand Ole Opry

Where the legends come to call

She’s the queen of country music

She’s the grandest lady of them all



She sings of desperados

The lonesome whistle of a midnight train

And the coal mines of Kentucky

And how it feels to be out in the rain

She sings of Texas cowboys of hobos and of heroes

And the loneliness of wearin’ prison blues

But most of all she sings about the common people just like me and you



And she’s known as the Grand Ole Opry

Where the legends come to call

She’s the queen of country music

She’s the grandest lady of them all
