Uncle Pen Lyrics - Hank Wilsons Back - Leon Russell

Oh, the people would come from miles away 

They'd dance all night till the break of day 

When the caller hollered, "Do-se-do" 

They knew it was time for Uncle Pen to go 

Late in the evening about sundown 

High on the hills and above the town 

Uncle Pen played the fiddle, lord, he had it ring 

You could hear it talk, you could hear it sing 

He played an old piece he called "Soldier's Joy" 

And the one called "The Boston Boy" 

But the greatest of all was "Jenny Lynn" 

To me that is where the fiddle begins

Late in the evening about sundown 

High on the hills and above the town 

Uncle Pen played the fiddle, lord, he had it ring 

You could hear it talk, you could hear it sing 

I'll never forget that mournful day 

When Uncle Pen was called away 

He hung up his fiddle, he hung up his bow 

He knew it was time for him to go 

Late in the evening about sundown 

High on the hills and above the town 

Uncle Pen played the fiddle, lord, he had it ring 

You could hear it talk, you could hear it sing
