There's a lot to be said for that style of banjo playing, friends and neighbors. 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

Banjo power chords

HE WAS A GOOD MAN

This song was awesome when the American way was the American way

#MountainDew was a Moonshine Mixer NOT Moonshine itself Moreover,I enjoy the Diet Mountain Dew #GrandpaJones 1913 - 1998 #Fan

he's young here! i remember him older on hee haw, always a treasure seeing these old country performers. thank you for uploading

A National Treasure theres only One Grandpa Jones!!!

What a showman, what a Banjo player, what singer. Never another like him......

Every riff and verse ends with the banjo going kachang

My kin down under jams just like my home in the Deep South. Love you blokes 😂

Dang, I hope that banjo was 18 grandpa 😂

I was in Rosina Kentucky jamboree Abt 20 something years ago and bought a CD from some grandson or nephew but no longer have it .but I was also recently down Rosina Kentucky and the barn and jamboree is still going on in which is great good old bill Monroe hometown

We're has these great days and people gone

The definition of showmanship 👍🏻

Now Mountain Dew is your dentist's best friend.

That guy could play with his teeth if he didn't have arms. Crazy talent...

Grew up on this song...❤

My west coast friends were speechless 😅

Gold

Grampa and String bean were neighbors and good friends for many years, RIP to them both

One of country music's many classic characters.

Les Claypool is either a descendant, or Dre great influence from this man’s performances. 🤣

If Grandpa Jones don't make you smile, somebody better check your pulse......

👍👍There is only one of these guys, and that’s grandpa Jones, they broke the mold my name a.m.

I just can’t understand why people think folds with a hillbilly accent are dumb. I knew a guy that couldn’t read or write and could build a house from the ground up. I think people from the mountains have the most common sense to this day.

Yep they don't make them like old grandpa no more sure don't

This is rock and roll. And I'll fight any man that says it isn't. Jk but anyway that was badass.

1:49 makes me think of Les Claypool with the knee bounce. This is awesome

Did you know grandpa jones mustache was fake

Anyone know the name of the host? Looks familiar.

This song still makes me laugh

Just thinking about him driving up to his best friend's house and finding him and his wife murdered breaks my heart. They were going fishing that morning. It was truly horrible what happened to them. Growing up, i never knew what Grandpa had went through because i was 3 or 4 when it happened. I remember watching him on Hee Haw but i never knew about Stringbean and his wife. I also learned that the famous crow on Hee Haw was actually kept in remembrance of Stringbean. Stringbean played the scarecrow. Don't believe me?? Look it up. I looked and found the earlier episodes. Stringbean was an amazing performer and i truly missed out as a kid.

this was when life was good, you were happy with what you had, and tv was really good. i miss that world

Here partly bc of Jim Cornette

Hands down best part is at 1:40 the buzzards in the sky GET SO DRUNK THEY CANT FLY I love it

I miss the HillBilly invasion of late 60's 70's

I sure wish I could play the banjo like he did.

i’m only fourteen but this is one of my favourite songs as well as “are you from dixie” and Grandpa Jones is one of my favourite singers along with Johnny Cash, George Jones, Buck Owens, Merle Haggard, etc.

Grandpa Jones hat had better be in a museum.

0:13 There’s a big holler tree down the road hea from me Where you lay down a dollar or tew When you come down the bend and you come back again There’s a jug full 'o good ole' mountain dew 0:27 Oh they call it that ole mountain dew And them that refuse it are few I’ll shut up ma mug if you fill up ma jug With some good ole mountain dew 0:41 My uncle Nort, he’s sawed off and short He measures about four foot tew But he thinks he’s a giant when you give him a pint Of that good ole mountain dew 0:54 My old aunt June bought some brand new perfume If had such a sweet smelling pew But to her surprise when ya' had it analyzed It was nothing but good ole mountain dew 1:20 The preacher rolled by with his head haisted high Said his wife been down with the flu And he thought that I 'ort just to sell him a quart Of that good ole mountain dew 1:34 My brother Bill got a still on the hill Where he runs off a gallon 'er tew The buzzards in the sky get too drunk they can’t fly From smelling that good ole mountain dew 1:47 Oh they call it that ole mountain dew And them that refuse it are few I’ll shut up my mug if you fill up my jug With some good ole mountain dew

FUCK YEAH FROM ALBURY NSW.

We live on a farm I’m the kid and I work the hadest

As I said on another Grandpa Jones video, what a legend and great performer Grandpa Jones was! How could you NOT get excited when he has such energy and he's bouncing and stomping those feet like that???!!! Thanks for posting this.

Always brings a tear to my eye!

Grandpa was a showman par excellence.

Soooooo Australian country singer apes a southern accent. Interesting. But this is as catchy and corny as the original I like it.

Thank God I'm an Aussie Boy.

I was actually drinking one as I was listening to this. It'll tickle your Innards.

100th

Me: I love this song Brad paisley: me neither 😊
