Back To Hank Lyrics by James Carothers

Relapse

2017

There's hip-hop beats at the opry
I never thought I'd see the day
There's rappers wearing cowboy hats
It didn't used to be that way
I reckon that's the way it's gone
And it's something I can't be
It don't sound like country
It don't look like Tennessee
Well, it's a long way back to Hank
It's a far cry to that old steel guitar twang
It's too far to turn around, I think
It's a long way back to Hank
Steel guitars and smokey bars
Is something from yesterday
But there's still hillbillys' a cuttin' rugs
And living the American way
This downtown Nashville music
Well, that just ain't my jam
I miss them old Twin Fiddles
And the sound from Alabam
Well, it's a long way back to Hank
It's a far cry to that old steel guitar twang
It's too far to turn around, I think
It's a long way back to Hank
Well, it's a long way back to Hank
It's a far cry to that old steel guitar twang
It's too far to turn around, I think
It's a long way back to Hank
Yeah, it's a long way back to Hank
