Hank It

  • A lot of things a country boy learns in life
    How to shoot a gun and how to use a knife
    But, when I pulled into Hershey, PA
    I took my guitar up on the big stage.

    That night I did the best I could
    Me and the boys played pretty darn good
    Then I took myself out, sat in the crowd,
    And learned how Bocephus shakes 'em down

    You gotta Hank it
    You can't sip whiskey, gotta drink it
    Push it up to ten and crank it
    If you wanna keep your woman, gotta spank it
    If you ain't got a bunch, you gotta bank it
    Baby just like he sings it
    You gotta Hank it

    There was a smokin' little blond sittin' next to me
    Said how'd you make it here from Tennessee
    She must've been late and didn't catch my show
    But when you play at 7 that's the way it goes
    So I tipped my hat and we sang along to
    "Where Have All My Rowdy Friends Gone"
    I climbed up on the bus after the show
    Had a shot of Jim Beam and we hit the road.

    You gotta Hank it
    You can't sip whiskey, gotta drink it
    Push it up to ten and crank it
    You wanna keep your woman, gotta spank it
    Ain't got a bunch, gotta bank it
    Live it just like he sings it
    You gotta Hank it

    You gotta Hank it
    You can't sip whiskey, gotta drink it
    Push it up to ten and crank it
    You wanna keep your woman, gotta spank it
    Ain't got a bunch, gotta bank it
    Baby just like he sings it
    You gotta Hank it
    You gotta Hank it
