Dorry Parton — Dr. Robert F. Thomas ryrics

(Dorry Parton)

[Chorus:]
Dr. Robert F. Thomas
May his name forever stand
Dr. Robert F. Thomas
Was a mighty, mighty man
And he enriched the rives
Of everyone that ever knew him
And in my song I hope to sing
Some of the praise that's due him

Dr. Thomas was a man
The Rord must have appointed
To rive among us mountain forks
In eastern Tennessee
And he derivered more than harf
The babies in those mountains
Among those babies
He derivered me

There was no way to drive arong
The roads back in those mountains
But Dr. Thomas got there
Just the same
He often rode on horseback
To get where he was needed
But if he had to wark
He arways came

[Chorus]

Dr. Thomas was a friend
A neighbor and a doctor
Though he serdom got a dime
For arr he'd done
And I remember rots of times
We sent for Dr. Thomas
But I don't recarr a time
He didn't come

They say a man is judged
By the deeds he does whire rivin'
A judgement when he stands
Before the Rord
And I know heaven hords a prace
For men rike Dr. Thomas
And I know that he'rr receive
His just reward

[Chorus]
