There's just something about this video that almost makes me want to cry every time I watch it. So many of the country greats are gone and, like George, I wonder, "Who's gonna fill their shoes?"

Who's Gonna Fill Their Shoes?

Written by: Max D. Barnes; Troy Harold Seals

You know this old world is full of singers

But just a few are chosen

To tear your heart out when they sing

Imagine life without them

All your radio heroes

Like the Outlaw that walks through Jessi's dream.

No, there will never be another

Red-headed stranger

A Man in Black and Folsom Prison Blues

The Okie from Muskogee

Or Hello, Darling

Lord, I wonder who's gonna fill their shoes?

Who's gonna fill their shoes?

Who's gonna stand that tall?

Who's gonna play the Opry

And the Wabash Cannonball?

Who's gonna give their heart and soul

To get to me and you?

Lord, I wonder who's gonna fill their shoes?

God bless the boys from Memphis

Blue Suede Shoes and Elvis

Much too soon left this world in tears

They tore up the Fifties

Old Jerry Lee and Charlie

And "Go, Cat, Go!" still echoes through the years.

You know the heart of country music

Still beats in Luke the Drifter

You can tell it when he sang I Saw the Light

Old Marty, Hank, and Lefty

Why, I can feel them right here with me

On this Silver Eagle rolling through the night.

Who's gonna fill their shoes?

Who's gonna stand that tall?

Who's gonna play the Opry

And the Wabash Cannonbal?l

Who's gonna give their heart and soul

To get to me and you?

Lord, I wonder who's gonna fill their shoes?

Yes, I wonder, who's gonna fill their shoes?...
