Okay lol don't laugh at me but I like that song Rhinestone cowboy. Every since I heard it on a t.v. show a few months ago. When I heard it I went online to look up lyrics and it said something about Kenny Rogers. So I always automatically assumed that he was the original singer. But then, yesterday on PBS there was an old man singing it and he didn't look anything like Kenny Rogers. So I went online again and it said something about Glen Campbell singing Rhinestone Cowboy. So exactly who is the original artist of the song? Glen Campbell, Kenny Rogers, or someone else?
