Irene Kelley - Benny's TV Repair
We didn't get to Pittsburgh much it was 30 miles awayI didn't lose nothing there that's what my dad would say
He had a little basement shop, am radio
I heard country music and it never let me go
He took a correspondence course
that he got in the mail
bonified, filled with pride
he learned to fix things well
dressed like a working man, smiled like a millionaire
cause the sign said
Benny's TV Repair
He'd fix anything in town if he could find the part
Taught me how to stand my ground and how to trust my heart
My momma was the only woman that he ever loved
The sparkle in his hazel eyes told you just as much
He took a correspondence course
that he got in the mail
bonified, filled with pride
he learned to fix things well
dressed like a working man, smiled like a millionaire
cause the sign said
Benny's TV Repair
Some things I've forgotten some things fade away
One thing is so clear to me it's burned into my brain
The sign that my brother made way back when we were kids
To this day still stands for who he was and what he did
He took a correspondence course
that he got in the mail
bonified, filled with pride
he learned to fix things well
dressed like a working man, smiled like a millionaire
cause the sign said
Benny's TV Repair
yeah sometimes I almost seeing him standing there
Benny's TV Repair
