Hank Williams, Jr. - Ballad Of Hank Williams слова песни




Don tell us how it really was when you was workin with daddy.Well in 1950 I took a little nip Along with Mr. Williams on the way to Mississipp`We was stacked 8 deep in a Packard limousineAnd we met this promoter in the town of New OrleansNow the man told Daddy that he had what it tookAnd he liked the way he sang and he liked the way he shookHe said pretty soon he`d make us all richAnd we started believin` that fat sumbitchDaddy told the man if you wanna make some doughTake a little money and book me on a showAnd we played them dates and we filled the places wellBut Hank, he`d done blowed the profits all to hell Cause he`d run through a 10 and he`d run through a 20And he`d run through a 100 just as fast as it could goLike a big dose of sauce to a little bitty fellaHe`d spend a $1000 dollars on a $100 dollar show Hank looked at me with a funny lookin` grin, Said "I`ve been to the Opry and I`m goin` back again"We met the owner in a little office thereAnd a big fat fella with some artificial hairHe told Hank he wanted half of everything he made Or he`d have to tell Audrey `bout some women Hank had laidAnd you told Daddy he`d better get smart, Get rid of them fellas and make a new start And he fired my ass and he fired Jerry RiversAnd he fired everybody just as hard as he could goHe fired old Cedric and he fired Sammy PruittAnd he fired some people that he didn`t even know Well, every song he made it went to number one,Y`all was workin` like hell and you was havin` funWe was ridin` every day and playin` every nightAnd every 20 minutes some of us had a fightNow, Daddy he was makin` money hand over fist, And y`all was getting` screwed but you wasn`t getting kissedYeah, I told him to pass a little bit around But he said he`d rather send it to his folks in Alabam` So he fired your ass and he fired Jerry RiversAnd he fired everybody just as hard as he could goHe fired old Cedric and he fired Sammy PruittAnd he fired some people that he didn`t even know Now the owner of the Opry, he`s a-doin` pretty good, He`s got a music company that they call CedarwoodAnd Hank played nothing but sold out hallsAnd I was pumpin` gas in greasy overallsCause he fired my ass and he fired Jerry RiversAnd he fired everybody just as hard as he could goHe fired old Cedric and he fired Sammy PruittAnd he fired some people that he didn`t even knowHank run through a 50 and he`d run through a 100And he`d run through a 1000 just as hard as he could goBuying cadillac coots paying double allimonyAnd he fired some people that he didn`t even know.Don you know you, know you used to work for me one time I sure know that come but come to think of it you fired my ass back in 1972Oh...well it`s a family tradition ya know?Yap yap yap yap...But I kept Jerry RiversRight right..
