Hello! I'm CHERYL BOBBITT! Singer/Songwriter/Musician I enjoy performing with my band Kickin It Dixie in the Galveston/Houston area. We just celebrated a 2 year anniversary and just released a debut CD. I’ve been in Texas for 8 years and love it! I used to live along the Ohio River right across from Cincinnati and enjoyed covering several styles of music in the Country, Blues and Folk/Rock veins along with my original music.

Lyrics
Daddy’s Hometown We got up before the sun, loaded the Edsel wagon Nine kids half asleep we headed out the drive It was 10 hrs of riding but well worth the waitin’ There was nothing like the water-color blue in the Harlan County sky Daddy said sit back and soak up the scenery Watch those hills to turn to Appalachians high Rollin southbound on the Dixie, a long and winding by-way We left behind the tinted air for a little while Cawood, Kentucky That’s where Daddy was born Cawood, Kentucky Daddy’s Hometown What do you suppose we could do down in them mountains Wander through the hollar, visit with Uncle Jim Maybe go on down to ole Crummies Creek Daddy said “You boys better not fall in” Catchin’ crawdad and minners we got soaked to the skin (Bridge) 40 yrs of yesterdays the town has grayed and weathered It’s time to gather on the mountain side Under the tallest pine next to Mama and Pappy He’ll lie beneath the water-color blue in the Harlan County sky Cawood, Kentucky That’s where Daddy was born Cawood, Kentucky Daddy’s Hometown
