Understanding Hank

I think I liked it better
When I was just a fan
I played those ol' scratched up records
Of the Drifting Cowboys Band
When he was just a legend
And they were only songs
But now I find myself on the same Lost Highway he was on
All because of you
Honey thanks
'Cause now I’m understandin' Hank
Yeah it’s the bottle, it’s a Cold Cold Heart
It’s livin' just to die
Its the Lovesick Blues, gettin' over you
I’m So Lonesome I Could Cry
A ramblin' man with a midnight train rollin' through his veins
From the life he lived down to every song he sing
I’m understandin' Hank
I’m just like that hollowed soul underneath the nudie suit
I know what he meant when he sang I Can’t Help It If I’m Still in Love With You
And I can feel the beat of Your Cheatin' Heart as I lie alone at night
Now every note Hank Williams ever moaned
It tears me up inside all because of you
Yeah honey thanks
'Cause now I’m understandin' Hank
Yeah it’s the bottle, it’s a Cold Cold Heart
It’s livin' just to die
Its the Lovesick Blues, gettin' over you
I’m So Lonesome I Could Cry
A ramblin' man with a midnight train rollin' through his veins
From the life he lived down to every song he sing
I’m understandin' Hank
If there’s one thing you’ve given me
It’s a chance to fill the seam
As my hero, his sad songs and his pain
A ramblin' man with a midnight train rollin' through his veins
From the life he lived down to every song he sing
God knows, I’m finally understandin' Hank
I’m understandin' Hank
