My Name Is Jimmy Martin (Do You Remember Me?)

I was walking down an old dirt road and it was sunday time
 When I heard the sound that changed my life coming down the mountainside
 On the hill there stood a cabin, weathered, gray and old
 That front porch bluegrass picking, son, was pure Kentucky gold
 They sang Blue Moon of Kentucky just the way that it was wrote
 They played a song called Down the Road and they never missed a note
 There was a man a'singing and he wore a big white hat
 It could have been old Bill Monroe or maybe Lester Flatt
 I learned to play the guitar and sing a lonesome song
 I wrote a song called Tennessee, that's where my heart belongs
 I took sunny mountain music to the Grand Old Opry
 My name is Jimmy Martin, do you remember me
 They fired me from that factory job I needed at the time
 Little did I know the fame waited just on down the line
 With my guitar in an old tote sack, my heart was full of joy
 When this Hancock County farmer's son became a bluegrass boy
 I took my music far and wide where I heard the people call
 For the sunny side of the mountain where the rippling waters flow
 They called me the king of bluegrass, everybody knew my name
 From a little town called Sneedville the the bluegrass hall of fame
 I learned to play the guitar and sing a lonesome song
 I wrote a song called Tennessee, that's where my heart belongs
 I took sunny mountain music to the Grand Old Opry
 My name is Jimmy Martin, do you remember me
