Song Quote by Brian Wright
“When I'm gone, play my song, and spread my ashes over Rocky Top, Yeah. A little Merril and some George Jones, and make sure that the party down here never stops. When I'm gone, just carry on like I never left you. When I'm gone, just carry on, just make sure you play my song, just make sure you play my song, just make sure you play my song”
