It's spelled Uncle PEN... one N at the end.
I wonder when this misspelling started to appear? Must be at least 40 years ago, as to this
day almost always Pen is Spelled PENN.
And that's incorrect.

Indeed several artists recorded the song as Uncle Pen.

It was written and performed by Bill Monroe under the title UNCLE PEN.
All 'Penn' mentions are W R O N G !...Plain ignorant stupidity for 40 years in the Elvis scene.
