Hank And Lefty Raised My Country Soul
Daddy had a 1941 Ford and I was just bout ten years old
We would listen to Hank and Lefty on the radio
Why Don't You Love Me Like You Used to Do
And Just Look What Thoughts Will Do
Ol' Hank and Lefty raised my country soul
Learned how to sing and shuffle my shoes
Listenin' to Hank sing the Lovesick Blues
We never met ol' Hank but we was awful close
Cut my teets on Always Late and I love You A Thousand Ways
Ol' Hank and Lefty raised my country soul
[ fiddle - steel ]
Daddy said the hair on his neck would crawl
When ol' Hank sang about the light he saw
Ol' Hank sure put a lot of heart in the songs he wrote
Everytime daddy could a little bit time
Mom And Dad's Waltz would make him cry
Ol' Hank and Lefty raised my country soul
Learned how to sing and shuffle my shoes...
Ol' Hank and Lefty raised my country soul
