Held up two fingers and caught three.
He caught two and a half.
Well what you got in the way of music in that box?
We got a new one here this morning, we're gonna start things off.
The thing I wrote here a while back, recorded by Carl Smith.
See what we can do with it boys, a thing called There Ain't Nothing.
Carl said, there's nothing as sweet as my baby, huh?
Let's go.
I like candy and I like cake, I like jam but goodness sake,
there's nothing as sweet as my baby.
She got golden hair and big blue eyes, she could win a beauty prize,
there's nothing as sweet as my baby.
Now if I ever lose her I'll lay me down and die,
if sugar seems sweet then you ought to meet my honey coldest sweetie pie.
Now I like candy and I like cake, I like jam but goodness sake,
there's nothing as sweet as my baby.
We like candy and I like cake, I like jam but goodness sake,
there's nothing as sweet as my baby.
Now I feel like a honeybee when she's fuzzing round with me,
there's nothing as sweet as my baby.
I got pounds of candy kisses but I can't spare an ounce,
she's sweeter than wine and brother she's mine and that's the only thing that counts.
Well I like candy and I like cake and I like jam but for goodness sake,
there's nothing as sweet as my baby.
There ain't nothing as sweet as my baby.
I really wrote that for my baby, Carl.
You wrote that for Bo Seifus?
Yeah, I rest well wrote it.
Maybe he's listening to this one.
Yeah, there ain't nothing as sweet as Bo Seifus.

You got him. I forgot something this morning, fellas. You know what it was?
What was?
I usually put that on the end and I come slam off and forgot it.
Got some folks visiting here this morning, I don't see how nobody can get up this early.
Get over here but us. We're awful glad to have them.
Good buddy of ours from down San Antonio, Texas.
Good friend of mine, good friend of Bill Lister's here.
Harry Muster Mouth O'Connor. How you doing, Harry?
Come on up here, boy, say something. Say howdy-do, something or another. How you doing, huh?
Hello, Hank. It's good to be up here visiting with you.
How's everybody in San Antonio?
Just fine. A message of hello from Mrs. Jimmy Rogers.
Thank you. How's the wife?
Oh, just peachy fuzzy.
Well, now that's fine. Good as can be.
Good to visit with you.
Thank you a lot, Harry. Also, stringing along so to watch after him, show him around Nashville here.
I got an old boy I know you ain't never heard of him.
Some character over here on some place around here called Uncle Joe Ellison.
Come on up here. I know you ain't gonna sit there when you can talk.
How you doing, boy?
Just fine, Hank. I'm glad to see you.
I'm glad to be up here.
I'll bet you a half a gallon of red hatching, seeing gooder than snuff and better than taters.
I don't know. I'm glad to have you, Joe.
Your mother's best, boy.
Thank you, boy. Good to have you here.
Louie even says thank you.
Louie gets nervous when we get these folks up here sometimes.
Don't know what they're gonna say. We're gonna have to go to auditioning them first.
Well, that Joe ain't no telling what he's liable to start selling.
I ain't gonna let him sell anything but mother's best on this program. I'll tell him that.
I'll tell you right now. When you get mother's best, you get the best. Am I right, Joe?
Right. That's one thing we all agree on.
Jerry, give us about a yard and a half here of a good hoedown, son.
How about a little turkey in the hay? Huh? Let's go.
Let's go out again.
Let's go.
Thank you, burrheads.
Don said Jerry must sell. There's a fine one written by Fred Rose.
Greatest living songwriter, I think, in our kind of music.
Wait for the light to shine.
When the road is rocky and you're carrying a load,
wait for the light to shine.
If you find you're friendless on that weary lonesome road,
wait for the light to shine.
Wait for the light to shine.
Wait for the light to shine.
Pull yourself together and keep looking for the sign.
Wait for the light to shine.
I don't forget your brother as you travel through the land.
Wait for the light to shine.
He may be in trouble and may need a helping hand.
Wait for the light to shine.
Wait for the light to shine.
Wait for the light to shine.
Never give up hope to cast your pearl before the swine.
Wait for the light to shine.
And that's a good one.

And for the best cornmeal that you ever made cornbread and hushpuppies with, try mother's best.
The cornmeal that's twice clean, neighbors, is washed with water,

Take a tip from me and get some of that self-rising.
You ladies have really got a surprise in store for you if you just make one little dab of cornbread out of that self-rising cornmeal.
It's something.
And by the way, if your grocer hasn't got it, tell him to call CB Ragland Company and ask for Mr. Jim Davis down there,
and he'll load up one of those great big trucks and take him some out there.
Tell him Hank sent you.
Tell him anybody sent you. Just call him.
That's the deal.
Now we're...
Tell him Uncle Joe sent you. We don't care who you say.
Tell him Uncle Joe sent you.
Just give him some good flour.
That's mother's best is the best.
That's right. We better get some cheese hoops and gourds, too.
And bugles and bandages and continue on.
Time to go.
Being the good Lord's willing and the creeks don't rise, twigs our house and yours.
We'll see you again in the morning.
Francis, boys, is her name. I'll sound it out.
Put the coffee pot on. Put the biscuits in the skillet.
Not in the skillet, in the oven.
Break me a couple of cackleberries in the skillet. I'll be there directly, both of you. Let's go home, boys.
Friends, when you want to get a straight talk on the best livestock and poultry feeds, have a talk with your local mother's best feed dealer.
You'll be more than pleased with his service and with the wonderful feeds that he sells.
For example, there's mother's best starting mash with C87, the chick starter packed with essential feed elements and scientific amounts.
And the C87 and mother's best starting mash is the newest and best feeding discovery in many years.
C87 helps chicks grow up faster, up to 10% faster with your 4% less feed.
According to experiments on the mother's best test farm, just think, 10% faster with 4% less feed.
Try mother's best starting mash with C87 and get it from your local red hat dealer.
Two of the dealers in this trading area are the Lawrence Hardware and Feed Store in Morrison, Tennessee, and the Park Brothers down in Columbia, Tennessee.
Not only in the morning, this is Cousin Louis Buck speaking for Hank Williams and all the boys saying the best of everything to your neighbors, and that's mother's best.
That's all she wrote. That's all. Goodbye. See you in the morning. So long.
