Nitty Gritty Dirt Band Lyrics

   Along with the Byrds, the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band were a rootsy, soulful West Coast band partly responsible for the influential California Country Rock movement during the late 1960s and early '70s. Although most famous for their hit, Jerry Jeff Walker's "Mr. Bojangles," the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band should be recognized as one of the only West Coast Country Rock bands accepted and respected by the Nashville country music community. Perhaps this was due to their successful 1972 release Will The Circle Be Unbroken, named after a standard made famous by the Carter Family. Recorded in Nashville, the album consisted of traditional songs recorded with warm tones from a traditional-sounding backline and towering vocal harmonies. Doc Watson, Roy Acuff, Vassar Clements, Earl Scruggs, Mother Maybelle Carter and many other stellar Nashville musicians appeared on the album. The band has remained together since 1965 and continues to play sold-out shows to diverse audiences. Their music today encompasses soulful Country Rock, foot-shaking Boogie Rock, and beautiful pop songs disguised in the hot twang and backwoods tones that make the band's moniker legitimate.

Nitty Gritty Dirt Band Song Lyric:

Hillbilly Hollywood

I can still remember my first guitar
Bright and shiny like a brand new car
Even took it with me when I went to school
And I practiced every day till I got real good

I learned every lick on the radio
From wabash cannon to go johnny go
I majored in rhythm with a minor in blues
Then I hit the road with my blue suede shoes

And I dreamed of seeing my name in lights
Grand ole opry on on a saturday night
Standing where my heroes stood
Hillbilly hollywood

I played some bars where you never wanna go
From oklahoma city down to tupelo
My ears would be ringing like an old fire bell
When I’d lay me down in some cheap hotel

And I dreamed of seeing my name in lights
Grand ole opry on a saturday night
Standing where my heroes stood
Hillbilly hollywood

And I pray before too long
They will hear my song

And I dreamed of seeing my name in lights
Grand ole opry on a saturday night
Standing where my heroes stood
I dreamed grand old opry on a saturday night standing . .
Hillbilly hollywood hillbilly hollywood hillbilly hollywood
