@NotTooFar936 I bought his greatest hits for $7 at the Ernest Tubb Record Shop in Nashville a few weeks ago. I'm sure you can find it on Amazon for dirt cheap.

@yarmouk334 Wish I knew where to find Roys version of this song I lost mine a few years ago.

This is one of my favorite songs of all-time. Roy Acuff did a good job on his version. I need to learn how to pronounce everything correctly. This version got me to finally buy a fiddle.

I love this one.
To be translated in Dutch, transformed from voilins to accordeon.
And to be played at a lot of weddings.
''Deerntien blond, deerntien mien.
Zo mooi as ie bent, ku'j ze niet zien
Danse met oe de hele nacht, omda'k niks aans meer verwacht.
Deerntien blond, deerntien mien.''
Jeehaa!
