Are You Sure Hank Done It This Way

(intro 4x)


Lord, it s the same ol tune, fiddle and guitar,

where do we take it from here?

Rhinestone suits and 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 ve finally got it made.

Ol Hank made it here, and we re all sure that you will,

but I don t think Hank done it this way.

Naw, I don t think Hank done this way.

( ) (5x)


Ten years on the road, makin one night stands,

speeding my young life away.

Tell me one more time just so s I ll understand,

are you sure Hank done it this way?

Did ol Hank really do it this way?


Lord, I ve see the world with a five-piece band,

looking at the backside of me,

singing my songs, one of his now and then,

but I don t think Hank done em this way.

No, I don t think Hank done em this way.
