The Funky Grass Band

Red Lane - Dottie West

© Tree Pub, BMI

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 orangy 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 down the highway
[ 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...
Oh get it Eli son crank it crank it crank it Eli
