Yodel Blues - The Petersens (LIVE)

BIG NEWS, there is a banjo baby on the way, fall 2023!! Congratulations Ellen and Michael   / csmh-mdojvx  

This song was a request by none other than our mom! She has always loved yodeling and each year when we pick our set list, she brings up this song again so we finally gave in! Here is "Yodel Blues."

(Julz was still in college when we filmed this video)

►LYRICS - Yodel Blues
Oh, yodelay yodelay got the blues
Yodelay yodelay just for you
Yodelay yodelay and the sweetest still home I ever knew
Oh, yodelay yodelay gotta go
Yodelay yodelay don't you know
Yodelay yodelay and I'll sing the yodelay blues

Way up in New York City they got a different style
So busy making money they ain't got time to smile
It was so doggone crowded, I felt so hemmed in there
I came back home to Texas to get a breath of air

Oh, yodelay yodelay got the blues
Yodelay yodelay just for you
Yodelay yodelay and the sweetest still home I ever knew
Oh, yodelay yodelay gotta go
Yodelay yodelay don't you know
Yodelay yodelay and I'll sing the yodelay blues

Down in the valley
(Oh, yodelay yodelay got the blues
Yodelay yodelay just for you)

You'll hear me when the lights are low
(Yodelay yodelay and the sweetest still home I ever knew)

Down in the valley
(Oh, yodelay yodelay gotta go
Yodelay yodelay don't you know

You'll hear my yodelay blues
(Yodelay yodelay and I'll sing the yodelay blues)

We're so lonesome, we don't know what to do
I guess we're sentimental, feeling the way we do

Oh, yodelay yodelay gotta go
Yodelay yodelay don't you know
Yodelay yodelay and we'll sing the yodelay blues
