Hank

My first record was the "Pressure Is On"

Ain't it funny how your life can change with a song

That's the first time I ever heard "Country Boy Can Survive"

Now I got a guitar and a lil' band

I live hard, I live fast, just like a man

Because you can't just play it, it's got to be part of your life

Guess I'm finally whiskey bent now, and hell bound

Because I been low but I ain't ever been this far down

I need a backroad, somewhere deep in the pines

Spinning my wheels until the sun shines

Because I'm back at the bottom and I ain't got nothing to lose

Yeah, I've prayed to the Lord, I've struggled and strived

But I will never get out of this world alive

Oh, Hank won't ya help me, because I'm low down and singing the blues

I almost OD'd in Denver just the other night

I was high in the Rockies on a 13-hour flight

Trying to get home, to my country state of mind

Now these blues, they come and go, just like the rain

I need a lil' more help to ease the pain

Mister weatherman, won't you please push these clouds away

Leave me alone because I'm singin' all damn night

There's a tear in my beer, I guess I finally know why

I need a backroad, somewhere deep in the pines

Spinning my wheels until the sun shines

Because I'm back at the bottom and I ain't got nothing to lose

Yeah, I've prayed to the Lord, I've struggled and strived

But I'll never get out of this world alive

Oh, Hank won't ya help me, because I'm low down and singing the blues

I need a backroad, somewhere deep in the pines

Spinning my wheels until the sun shines

Because I'm back at the bottom and I ain't got nothing to lose

Yeah, I've prayed to the Lord, I've struggled and strived

But I'll never get out of this world alive

Oh, Hank won't ya help me, because I'm low down, singing the blues

Oh, Hank won't ya help me, I'm low down, singing the blues

Oh, Hank, c'mon, won't ya' help me, oh
