Verse 1
G 
Thank you very much Norm Bale
and good evening everybody.
This is our third in a new series,
Saturday series of programs
and we haven't even begun to tap
the tremendous source of talent
on the Louisiana Hayride.
Now you take Johnny Horton,
the singing fisherman.
Here's a guy that's
just loaded with talent
but we just can't get him away from the
old fishing hole.
He just barely makes it in
every Saturday night.
C 
Here he is, right now!
Goodbye Joe,
