Jumped in the Town and Country, to see the family band
Headed North up 218, across this green land
From Wyoming to Monticello, Cascade to Farley
Corn and beans and Grant Wood scenes, as far as the eye can see
The Wapsipinicon's in the rear view mirror down 151
Reached Hazel Green at 12:15 and made our river run
Hit Baraboo at half past two, our destination in sight
The Family Band will take the stand on the Opry stage tonight
There’s Stephy on the stand-up bass and Liz plays the fiddle
Virgil plucks the banjo and Cindy sings a little
And Cupcake will tell you, there’s love in every note
You’ve got to hear the Family Band and that’s just all that she wrote
The people have come to listen since 1979
There’s a hayrack ride and good food inside and the girls look mighty fine
To hear the finest pickin’ and the stories that they tell
Jump in the van and cross the land and come up to the Dells
Jump in the van and cross the land and come up to the Dells
Jump in the van and cross the land and come up to the Dells
