Lyrics Old School - Hank Williams Jr.

Old School

I remember a young Johnny Cash waiting in the wings
Cause he’d hand me his cigarette when he’d go out to sing
And good ole Marshall Tucker Band back in 83
Was a special night they asked me Come on out and play ‘Can't You See'
Dolly was a teenage girl when I first me her wow
Jerry Lee played rock n roll at my house and I’m proud
I’m from the old school
But I made up my own rules
But I learned a thing or two
From some pretty good teachers
My education has served me well
One look at me and you can tell my music’s true
A class reunion of the blues
I’m from the old school
Well things were kinda rough at times I had to find my way
Not exactly an overnight sensation like some are today
Hey I’m a dinosaur that’s for sure but here’s what I gotta say
To anyone that questions my credentials «Hi, I’m Hank»
And I’m from the old school
But I made up some new rules
And you might learn a thing or two if ya hang around
I’ll teach you to write and play n sing ‘em
Take the guitars out and string ‘em
We’ll make your music true
A class reunion of the blues
I’m from the old school
And after all the songs are sang
Let’s all stop and have a drink
From my old bar stool
Hey everybody here’s to the old school
