  • Mr cash has got that lic America loves
    Hank's songs came direct from heaven above
    But the music I got strait
    From the hoase's mouth
    Yeah Waylon's guitar had that sound
    I got my first lesson
    From him around seventy-three
    He didn't lonesome or honoree to me
    He was about the nicest guy I've
    Ever met on the road
    Yeah Waylon's guitar could carry the load

    You've got to take that E string
    Hank and turn it down
    You've got to have that half
    Time beat that walks around
    Now I love Eric and Keith and
    Theres alot of hot hands around
    But Waylon's guitar had that sound yeah

    "You've got to get a Finder Telle
    And dress it in black
    "Put leather all around it
    So your buckel won't scratch the back
    Now I'm into Eric and Keith and
    Theres alot of hot hands around
    But Waylons Guitar had that sound

    You've got to get a Finder Tellercaster
    And dress it in black!
    Put leather all around it
    So a cowboy won't scratch the back!
    You know how them cowboys are Writer/s: Hank Williams Jr.

  • Anonymous from CollegeMan if I didn't know better I would say Waylon played that guitar part. Excellent work Mr. Williams and the rest of the guys on this record!
