Charley Pride Lyrics
"Guntersville Gazette"

Wasn't more than half a mile between the city limit signs|The population was cut in half, the day they shut down the mine|Only thing that hasn't changed, the way the gossip spreads|Cindy Lou's nails & hairdo's and the Guntersville Gazette||When I got home from travelin', first paper I picked up|Found the girl I thought was waitin', had waited long enough|Right beside her smilin' face, under brides to be|Said Saturday Miss Mandy Chase would be Mrs. William McGee||You never know from page to page whether you will laugh or cry|One page a baby's born, on the next an old friend died|Get advice from Gabby's corner, all of that for just a quarter|I was raised, there's three things, you never questioned what they said|Grandpa, the gospel, and the Guntersville Gazette||Two lonely concrete islands sticking above the ground|Underneath heartbreakin' headlines, Humpy's Gas & Tires burned down|Sally made the honor roll, the Cowboys finally beat the Jets|Read all about it in the Guntersville Gazette||You never know from page to page whether you will laugh or cry|One page a baby's born, on the next an old friend died|Get advice from Gabby's corner, all of that for just a quarter|I was raised, there's three things, you never questioned what they said|Grandpa, the gospel, and the Guntersville Gazette||Wise old men, a church house, a hand-cranked printin' press|Grandpa, the gospel, and the Guntersville Gazette|
