And she's known as the Grand Ole Opry
Up where and prison blues
Where the legend come to call
And she's known as the Grand Ole Opry
She sings of desperado's
She'll wipe away the pain of all
She's the grandest lady of them all
To be out in the rain
And feed the hunger in your soul
And once she shines upon you
And midnight train
Starts to unfold
She'll make you truly proud
And how it feels
With mother tender hand
That she's the star
She will applaud
And lonesome whistle love
Just like me and you
She's the queen of country music
When the curtain to her world
The common people
Of hobos and of heroes
The dues you had to pay
She's the queen of country music
But most of all she sings about
Where the legend come to call
Of where you are
And the coal mines of Kentucky
She sings of Texas cowboys
And the loneliness
