Who'se Gonna Fill Their Shoes Lyrics by George Jones

Who'se Gonna Fill Their Shoes

you know this old world is full of singer
but just a few were chosen
to tear their heart out when they sing
imagine life without them
all your radio heroes
like the outlaws like walk through jessie's dreams
no there'll never be another red headed stranger
a man in black or fulson prison blues
the okie from muskogee or hello darlin
Lord i wonder who's gonna fill their shoes

Chorus
Who's gonna fill their shoes
who's gonna stand that tall
who's gonna play the opra or the wabash cannon ball
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 suade shoes and elvis
much to soon he left this world in tears
they tore up the 50's
ole jerry lee and charlee
and go cat go still echoes through the years
you know the heart of country music still beats in luther drifter
you can tell it when he sang i saw the light
ole marty hank and lefty well i can feel em right here with me
on this silver eagle rolling through night

Chorus
Who's gonna fill their shoes
who's gonna stand that tall
who's gonna play the opra or the wabash cannon ball
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
