Wrong group. That was Richard Sterban of the Oak Ridge Boys.
Excellent song.
may he rest in peace. he and the others in the Statler Bros did much for the Staunton Va area from which they hailed - annual free July 4th concerts bringing in many stars in the country music world. fine fellows all of them.
RIP.
Harold Reid
WHATEVER HAPPENED TO RANDOLPH SCOTT?
Everybody knows when you go to the show
You can’t take the kids along
You’ve gotta read the paper and know the code
Of G, PG and R and X
You gotta know what the movie’s about
Before you even go
Tex Ritter’s gone and Disney’s dead
The screen is filled with sex.
Whatever happened to Randolph Scott
Ridin’ the range alone
Whatever happened to Gene and Tex
And Roy and Rex, the Durango Kid
Whatever happened to Randolph Scott
His horse, plain as can be
Whatever happened to Randolph Scott
Has happened to the best of me.
Everbody’s tryin’ to make a comment
About our doubts and fears
True Grit’s the only movie
I’ve really understood in years
You gotta take your analyst along
To see if it’s fit to see
Whatever happened to Randolph Scott
Has happened to the best of me.
Whatever happened to Randolph Scott
Ridin’ the range alone
Whatever happened to Gene and Tex
And Roy and Rex, the Durango Kid
Whatever happened to Randolph Scott
His horse, plain as can be
Whatever happened to Randolph Scott
Has happened to the best of me.
Whatever happened to Johnny Mack Brown
And Alan “Rocky” Lane
Whatever happened to Lash LaRue
I’d love to see them again
Whatever happened to Smiley Burnett
Tim Holt and Gene Autry
Whatever happened to all of these
Has happened to the best of me.
Whatever happened to all of these
Has happened to the best of me.
Oh yeah, in Elvira. Thanks!
