Artist/Band: Porter Wagoner
Lyrics for Song: Funky Grass Band
Lyrics for Album: Porter (RCA Victor) [1977]



(Red Lane - Dottie West)



A small town in Kentucky that's called Hazzard

Has been known to lay some talent on this land

Gave birth to a group that's really happening

Eli Stubbs and his Funky Grass Band.\



The Funky Grass Band hits the stage a grinnin'

Their pickin' really turns a body on

Now I wouldn't say the band makes too much money

Cause they been seen a smokin' roll-you-home.



Yellow bus come reelin' down the highway

Headin' for another one night stand

With the women screemin' faint throw their babies

At Eli Stubbs and his Funky Grass Band.



--- Instrumental ---



Now Eli's a little older and short and stubby

And he's bald as an eagle in the back

But he kept it hid from all the friends and neighbors

The one night the band got high and smoked his hat.



Now Eli bought himself a brand new toupet

It was long and shaggy and sorta orangey red

One night the fiddle player was a dancin' to the microphone

And pulled the rug clean off of Eli's head.



Yellow bus come reelin' down the highway

Headin' for another one night stand

With the women screemin' faint throw their babies

At Eli Stubbs and his Funky Grass Band.



--- Instrumental ---



One night they was a traveling through the Ozarks

And Eli had to answer nature's call

He told the driver to find a filling station

I gotta see a man about a dog.



He drove on for miles around the mountain

Eli hollered hey stop right here

Driver pulled too close to the canyon

And Eli almost ended his career.



Yellow bus come reelin' down the highway

Headin' for another one night stand

With the women screemin' faint throw their babies

At Eli Stubbs and his Funky Grass Band.



Oh, get it Eli son crank it, crank it, crank it Eli...
