Hank and Lefty |
| Daddy had a 1949 Ford |
| When I was just about ten years old |
| We would listen to 'Hank And Lefty' on the radio |
| Why don’t you love me like you used to do? |
| And just look what thoughts will do |
| Old 'Hank And Lefty', raised my country soul |
| Now I learned how to sing and shuffle my shoes |
| Listenin' to Hank sing the lovesick blues |
| We never met old Hank but we was awful close |
| Cut my teeth on 'Always Late' |
| And, 'I Love You A Thousand Ways' |
| Old 'Hank And Lefty' raised my country soul |
| Daddy said, the hair on his neck would crawl |
| When old Hank sang about the light he saw |
| Hank sure put a whole lot of heart in the songs he wrote |
| Every time daddy got a little bit tight |
| Mom and dad’s waltz would make him cry |
| Old 'Hank And Lefty' raised my country soul |
| Now I learned how to sing and shuffle my shoes |
| Listenin' to Hank sing the lovesick blues |
| We never met old Hank but we was awful close |
| Cut my teeth on 'Always Late' |
| And, 'I Love You A Thousand Ways' |
| Old 'Hank And Lefty' raised my country soul |
| Old 'Hank And Lefty' raised my country soul |
