Wanda Jackson

Perty little lo-ove song. Perty little lo-ove so-oh-ong. Perty little lo-ove song... bang bing bong.

Take a second to learn the real lyrics to this song* when the Marshall Tucker Band opens for Travis Tritt at the Otsego JamFest Friday night. With a small suburban festival featuring Southern rock and country of yesteryear, a holy coyote big ol' festival up north featuring the best and worst of newer country, and a few options nearby, the coming weekend's gonna be a big'un for live country music.
