| This Chevy van’s a long way from that 1952 blue Cadillac
|
| Oh yeah
|
| Yeah the cities and the highways and the music’s changed
|
| But other than that
|
| Feelings still get wrote down
|
| Put to chords and sang to crowds
|
| And those singers fly around like boomerangs (Ooh, yeah)
|
| Livin' like Hank
|
| What’s next?
|
| Still give it everything it takes and
|
| Take some things along the way to hell
|
| Yeah still love a man and leave him game
|
| And when it’s time to walk away
|
| Oh well
|
| Risky with some shortfalls
|
| When every night’s a long haul
|
| To get to where you got to be on stage
|
| Oh, livin' like Hank
|
| It’s always town to town
|
| Never slowing down
|
| And if I die young well I sure had me some fun
|
| On this lonesome highway in this dream I chase
|
| When you’re livin' like Hank
|
| Oh I spent night after night
|
| Sitting up waiting on the crack of dawn (I've been there too)
|
| I’ve had mornings waking up under wagons
|
| I shouldn’t be riding on
|
| Yeah I know momma wouldn’t be proud
|
| If she knew the in’s and out’s
|
| Or the shape that I’d get in
|
| And where I am
|
| Yeah when you’re livin' like Hank
|
| It’s always town to town
|
| Never slowing down
|
| And if I die young well I sure had me some fun
|
| On this lonesome highway in this dream I chase
|
| When you’re livin' like Hank
|
| It’s always town to town
|
| Never slowing down
|
| And if I die young well I sure had me some fun
|
| On this lonesome highway in this dream I chase
|
| Yeah when you’re livin' like Hank
|
| Yeah we’re livin' like Hank
|
| Damn right we are
|
| Now I don’t think Hank done it this way
|
| But we’re livin' like Hank
|
| It’s always town to town
|
| Never slowing down
|
| And if I die young well I sure had me some fun
|
| On this lonesome highway in this dream I chase
|
| When you’re livin' like Hank
|
| This record is in no way meant to say I think I’m Hank WIlliams
|
| Me either
|
| Or I’m trying to be like Hank WIlliams
|
| Damn right
|
| I’m just saying I love Hank WIlliams
|
| Me too
|
| He’s the reason I ever picked up a guitar and I’m just glad to be doing what
|
| I’m doing
|
| Oh preach on brother Thompson
|
| Out here, loose cannon, God bless country music |
