Statler Brothers Chet You're The Reason
There was a group of little guys grew up together
In the fifties when rock and roll was hot
And every time they turned on a radio station
Chuck Berry and Little Richard was all they got
And then one night, they heard the country gentleman
Playing something new in a brand new way
Chet would you play
Still hear him today
Chet you're the reason
We're country today
We only met but never got to know him
Till our first TV special years ago
So then we called and asked him
If he'd come by and do a little picking on our show
And there we sat in front of all America
Like we used to sit in front of our radios
Chet would you play
Still hear him today
Chet you're the reason
We're country today
Chet you're the reason
We're country today
