Are You Sure Hank Done It This Way ? Songtext

von Kinky Friedman

Lord, it's the same old tune
Fiddle and guitar
Where do you take it from here ?
Rhinestone suits, new shiny cars,
It's been the same way for years.
We need a change.
Somebody told me when I came to Nashville,
?Son, you finally got it made!?
Old Hank made it here, we all should do it our way
I don't think Hank done it this way,
No, I don't think Hank done it this way.

Ten years on the road making one-night stands
Spitting my young life away.
Tell me one more time so I'll understand
Are you sure Hank done it this way ?
Did old Hank really did it this way ?

Lord, I've seen the world with a five-piece band
Looking at the back side of me
Singing my songs one hears now and then
But I don't think Hank done it this way,
No, I don't think Hank done it this way.
