PROUD TO BE A DAUGHTER OF BLUEGRASS
By: Dixie Hall (BMI)

CHORUS I'M PROUD TO BE A DAUGHTER OF BLUEGRASS, DON'T CHA KNOW
FOLLOWING THE FOOTSTEPS OF MR. BILL MONROE
PLAYING AT THE FESTIVALS AND ON THE RADIO
I'M PROUD TO BE A DAUGHTER, AND PROUD TO TELL YOU SO

VERSE 1: I'M PROUD TO BE THE DAUGHTER OF "THE KING"
JIMMY MARTIN TAUGHT ME
HOW TO PICK AND HOW TO SING
I TRAVELED WITH HIM OUT THERE ON THE ROAD
WE WOULD BE IN HARMONY UNTIL THE ROOSTER CROWED

VERSE 2 WE'LL DRIVE THE MILES TO SING FOR YOU ON STAGE
THO MOST OF US DON'T OWN A BUS
LIKE RHONDA AND THE RAGE
WE'LL SHAKE AND HOWDY FOLLOWING THE SHOW
SO KEEP ON BUYING CDS AND HELP KEEP US ON THE ROAD

CHORUS: I'M PROUD TO BE A DAUGHTER OF BLUEGRASS, DON'T CHA KNOW
FOLLOWING THE FOOTSTEPS OF MR. BILL MONROE
PLAYING AT THE FESTIVALS AND ON THE RADIO
I'M PROUD TO BE A DAUGHTER, AND PROUD TO TELL YOU SO

VERSE 3: NOW WILMA LEE BROUGHT ME INTO THE WORLD
CARTER STANLEY WAS MY DAD AND I'M HIS BABY GIRL
WE ARE PROUD WE BEAR THE ISAAC'S NAME
SOME DAY THEY WILL BE THERE IN THE COUNTRY HALL OF FAME

VERSE 4: DON'T EVER SAY THE GOOD OLE DAYS ARE GONE
AS LONG AS THERE'S A DAUGHTER
BLUEGRASS MUSIC WILL LIVE ON
WE'LL WORK THE RECORD TABLES RAIN OR SNOW
DO THE DISHES, GET ON STAGE AND PUT EM ON A SHOW

CHORUS I'M PROUD TO BE A DAUGHTER OF BLUEGRASS, DON'T CHA KNOW
FOLLOWING THE FOOTSTEPS OF MR. BILL MONROE
PLAYING AT THE FESTIVALS AND ON THE RADIO
I'M PROUD TO BE A DAUGHTER, AND PROUD TO TELL YOU SO

FADE OUT: GRANT THEIR WISHES
GIVE THEM KISSES
DRIVE THE VAN
OPEN THEIR CANS
WATCH THEIR BAND
GIVE THEM A HAND
BUY THE GAS
FRY THEIR BASS
ROTATE THEIR WHEELS
AND FIX THEIR MEALS
ASK CARLTON FOR A BETTER DEAL
INVEST THE MONEY WATCH IT GROW
SING IT LOUD
'CAUSE WE ARE PROUD

TAG: DON'T YOU KNOW I'M PROUD TO BE A DAUGHTER AND I'M PROUD TO TELL YOU SO
