Hank and Lefty - 2003 Remaster

Lyrics

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 me Like You Used to Do?
 And Just Look What Thoughts Will Do
 Old Hank and Lefty raised my country soul
 Now I learned how to sing and shuffle my shoes
 Listening to Hank 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
 ♪
 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 and Dad's Waltz would make him cry
 Old Hank and Lefty raised my country soul
 Now I learned how to sing and shuffle my shoes
 Listening to Hank 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
 Old Hank and Lefty raised my country soul
