He made three appearances as Cousin Roy. On his first, he also played Mama Myrtle Halsey, an inside joke between him and his manager, Jim Halsey.

4. Roy Clark performed a tune pitting "Hee Haw" and "American Bandstand".

Answer: False

He did do a tune called "The Lawrence Welk-Hee Haw Counter Revolutionary Polka" which was done around 1971.

Trick question. Roy plays the guitar in this instrumental tune.

Answer: True

He visited there in 1976 and 1988.

Answer: Greyhound

Roy did a silly tune called "Thank God and Greyhound". You might want to play that song after unwanted guests overstay their welcome.

Answer: The Hollywood Squares

Roy got to rub elbows with Paul Lynde when he did a week back in 1974 on NBC.
