I’ve been humming ‘Yesterday, When I Was Young” all day.
RIP Roy. Thanks for the great entertainment

Grew up watching Hee Haw. The show, not the coach. RIP Roy!

I was never a big country music fan but if it had strings Roy could probably play it better and faster than anyone else...…

Pretty good musician and entertainer.

This is one of my dad’s favorite songs. Takes on more meaning every year - and ironic that he was so young when he recorded it:

Listened to him a lot when I was growing up. This was a favorite of my Granddaddy and mine too...



Who hasn't felt this way a time or two when a romance ended?!

One of my fav’s by him.

Hey cover, watched Cowboys just last night. Top 1-2 JW movies for me!

It's a good one, for sure. "I've had my back broke once and my hip twice and on my worst day I could beat the hell outta you." remains a Classic line. You can never go wrong watching the Duke.

He had poor taste in ketchup.
