Four years of hard work!

This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!

[Verse]
E
Most of the favorite memories of my boyhood days in Arkansas
A
Are scattered around an old wood stove at a place we call John's

It was just an old tar paper shack
E
With a pump out front and some junk out back

But inside there was always a hot cup of coffee
A
And a warm place around the fire for anyone
E
John pumped gas for a living and he fixed tires on the side

And I guess old John could fix most anything
A
If you didn't push it he'd try

And he gave me my first charge account for some gas
E
And financed my first date

Even fixed my old radio just in case I got lucky
A
And wanted to park down by the lake

[Chorus]
D
And among the carburetors and the re-built generators
A E A
I spent the whole night picking on an old flattop guitar
D
John would play the fiddle and I'd always sing a little
A E A
No there is no place to get filled up the way you could at John's

[Verse]
E
John taught me a whole lot about country music because he loved it
A
We'd sit up and listen to the Grand Ole Opry every Saturday night

Nobody would ever say a word, not even during Martha White
E
And I was awfully young back then, but still I knew just why

That John closed the shop the whole day
A
When we heard that Hank had died

There was something else special about ole John

[Verse]
E
He had a way of making us kids feel important
A
Simply by giving us a good clean place to hang out
E
Well I can still hear him saying pumping gas is a fever boys
A
It'll get in your blood and it'll make your face break out in a grin
E A
Just to check old lady Hanson's oil or to help a stranded friend

[Chorus]
D
And among the carburetors and the re-built generators
A E A
I spent the whole night picking on an old flattop guitar
D
John would play the fiddle and I'd always sing a little
A E A
No there is no place to get filled up the way you could at John's

[Chorus]
D
And among the carburetors and the re-built generators
A E A
I spent the whole night picking on an old flattop guitar
D
John would play the fiddle and I'd always sing a little
A E A
No there is no place to get filled up the way you could at John's
