Hank Williams Blues Lyrics - Jett Williams

You don't have to grow up poor 

On that red clay 'Bama land 

Or ride that old lost highway 

With a guitar in your hand 

But if you have a heartache 

That won't let go of you 

You might have the Hank Williams blues 

You might go see a doctor 

Or even talk to a shrink 

End up poppin' some little pills 

And a-chasin' 'em with a drink 

If the answers still go round and round 

And don't leave any clues 

You might have the Hank Williams blues 

Lord, when you got 'em 

You know by the pain 

You're hittin' on rock bottom 

Out in the pourin' rain 

Caught between everything 

Nothing left to lose 

You might have the Hank Williams blues 

Hank was only human 

Just like me and you 

Ridin' in the back of that Cadillac in 1952 

No one knows for certain 

But I believe it's true 

He had the first case of the hank Williams blues 

Lord, when you got 'em 

You know by the pain 

You're hittin' on rock bottom 

Out in the pourin' rain 

Caught between everything 

Nothing's left to lose 

You might have the Hank Williams blues 

Caught between everything 

With nothing left to lose 

Lord, I've got the Hank Williams blues 

(Blues, Hank Williams blues) 

(Blues, Hank Williams blues) 

(Blues, Hank Williams blues) 

(Blues, Hank Williams blues)
