ALAN JACKSON - THE BLUES MAN (A TRIBUTE TO HANK WILLIAMS, JR.) lyrics

rate me

He's just a singer

A natural born guitar ringer

Kind of a clinger to sad old songs

He's not a walk behinder

He's a new note finder

His name's a reminder

Of a blues man that's already gone

So he started drinking and took somethings

That meesed up his thinking

He was sure sinking when she came along

He was born in the spotlight

not to much left insight

She changed all that one night

When she sang him this song

Hey baby I love you

Hey baby I need you

Hey baby you ain't got to prove to me

Your some kind of macho man

You wasted so much of your life

running through the dark nights

Let me shine a little lovelight

down on that blues man

He got so sick from speedin

They said all the thing he was needin

If he was to keep on pleasin

All of his fans

He got cuffed on dirt roads

He got sued over no shows

She came and took all that old load

Down off of that blues man

And he sang

Hey baby I love you too

Hey baby I need you

Hey baby I do get tired

Of this traveling band

I'm over 40 years old now

Nights would be cold now

If you hadn't stuck it out with this blues man

He's over 40 years old now

Nights would be so cold now

If she hadn't hung around

With that blues man.
