A song about my ancestry

country music soul music gospel music rebel music outlaw music

Gary Duvall

In the style of Hank Williams I and III. My music is a blend of old school three chord country with a hard dose of rhythm and blues.

I have been writing songs for twenty years. I was in a band long ago, but it didn't work out. Now I choose to do all the writing, arranging and recording on my own. When you hear my music, you here 100% me.

Story behind the song

A song about my ancestry

Lyrics

I HAVE SEEN MY RELATIVES WITH PENNIES IN THEIR EYES
ON PUBLIC STREETS OUT ON DISPLAY
THEY SAY THEY WERE TRAIN ROBBERS
DANGEROUS WANTED MEN
THEY SAY THEY RODE WITH JESSE JAMES

MY GRANNYS NAME WAS FLORA DUVALL
BUT DALTON WAS HER MAIDEN NAME
AND WHEN HER COUSINS GOT TOGETHER
PEOPLE CALLED 'EM THE DALTON GANG

MY GRANNY SHE DENIED IT BUT MY DADDY ALWAYS SAID
HE'D MET 'EM ALL WHEN HE WAS YOUNG
HE SAID THEY SEEMED LIKE NORMAL FELLERS
DECENT HONEST FOLK
'CEPT FOR HOW THEY WORE THEIR GUNS

MY GRANNYS NAME WAS FLORA DUVALL
BUT DALTON WAS HER MAIDEN NAME
AND WHEN HER COUSINS GOT TOGETHER
PEOPLE CALLED 'EM THE DALTON GANG

I GUES THAT EXPLAINS A FEW THINGS ABOUT THE MAN I AM
THINGS UNTIL NOW MISUNDERSTOOD
MY DRINKING AND MY SMOKING AND MY RECKLESS RAMBLING LIFE
'COS I'VE GOT OUTLAW IN MY BLOOD

MY GRANNYS NAME WAS FLORA DUVALL
BUT DALTON WAS HER MAIDEN NAME
AND WHEN HER COUSINS GOT TOGETHER
PEOPLE CALLED 'EM THE DALTON GANG
