play me a hank song

well it all seemed so happy

but how can that be?

when there's a whole class of people

just as lonesome as me

you asked me to tell you

how i can be so blue?

but you'd be the same

if the girl of your dreams

broke your heart in two

so play me a hank song

to ease my pain

because it helps to know someone

felt the same damn way

alone and forsaken

brother

what can i say?

i feel like a hank song

since she went away

ol' kg's my buddy

we go way back

to the times back in high school

when i was too poor for jack

but even he knows that sometimes

you can't help right the wrongs

by gettin' stoned blind

you need to sit down and pine

to a hank sr song

so play me a hank song

to ease my pain

because it helps to know someone

felt the same damn way

alone and forsaken

brother what can i say?

you know i feel like a hank song

since she went away

well i hope that she's happy

and i hope that she's free

i hope she finds her a man

to treat her like a queen

and then up out of nowhere

when she needs him around

she wakes up to find

she's ran out of time

and he's ran out of town

i hope she needs her a hank song

to ease her pain

because it'll help to know someone

felt the same damn way

alone and forsaken

honey what can i say?

i hope you feel like a hank song

one of these days
