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 like you used to do
|
and just look what thoughs will do
|
old hank and lefty raised my country soul
|
|
(chours)
|
now i learned how to sing and shuffle my shoes
|
listin to han sing the lovesick blues
|
we never met ol hank but we was awful close
|
cut my teeth on always late
|
and i love you a thousand ways
|
ol hank and lefty raised my country soul
|
|
|
(break)
|
|
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
|
everytime daddy got a little bit tight
|
mom & dad's waltz would make him cry
|
old hank and lefty raised my country soul
|
|
(repeat chours)
|
|
old hank and lefty raised my country soul
|
old hank and lefty raised my country soul
|
