A Tribute To Ralph Stanley

Ralph Stanley didn’t set out to achieve fortune or fame

but by the time he left this world, his was a household name

Ralph was among the greats, he was a true bluegrass king

Everybody was amazed when they heard him play & sing

His voice it really stood out w/that high lonesome tenor ring

The music that he left behind is a precious legacy

If I would’ve gotten to meet him it would have meant the world to me
