lyrics

Thank You Doc
© by R. Bowdon

Well I first heard Doc Watson / on the Circle be Unbroken
Playin’ Blackberry Blossom and that stud from Tennessee
First chance I had to see him / was at David’s Pub in Dallas
It was Doc and Merle and Michael / man I won’t forget that scene

He was live and pickin’ / in my memory
He’ll live forever / in his songs
If I could travel back in time / if I could stop the clock
I’d go and tell him thank you Doc

Doc started in the 50’s / with electric rockabilly
Then he rode into the 60’s / playin’ folk and bluegrass too
But whatever Doc was pickin’ / or those ballads sweetly singing
You could always bet your money / that he’d come back to the blues

Chorus

Doc never stopped exploring / always touring and recording
Crossing boundaries building bridges / with a Carolina flair
And if you ever wonder / if he’ll ever be forgotten
Just look up Americana / you will see Doc’s picture there

Chorus
