Way down in West Virginia There's some people who are one of a kind They don't need nothin' from nobody Cause there already doin' fine You got Hasil Adkins hunchin' And Maime's raisin' hell The legend of D. Ray White Will never die like a rebel yell
And ole' Jesco's dancin' in his daddy's shoes Ya ole' Hasil's still hunchin' out them Boone County blues And ole' Maime shes done some time in jail The legend of D Ray White Will never die like a rebel yell
Bertie Mae white shes the strongest woman that I've ever met in my life She raised over 24 of her own and had to watch her husband die She's always fightin' hard and livin' off the land When she's done livin' in this world you know the lord's gonna take her by her hand
And ole' Jesco's dancin' in his daddy's shoes Ya ole' Hasil's still hunchin' out them Boone County blues And Maime you know she's still raisin' hell The legend of D Ray White Will never die like a rebel yell
Yeah the legend of D Ray White Will never die like a rebel yell
