Well I was thumbin' from Montgomery had my guitar on my back
When a stranger stopped beside me in an antique Cadillac
Now he was dressed like nineteen fifty half drunk and hollow-eyed
He said it's a long walk to Nashville
Would you like a ride, son?
Well I sat down in the front seat and turned on the radio
And them sad old songs comin' out of them speakers was solid country gold
Then I noticed the stranger was ghost-white pale when he asked me for a light
And I knew there was something strange about this ride
He said drifter
Can ya make folks cry when you play and sing?
Have you paid your dues?
Can you moan the blues?
Can you bend them guitar strings?
He said boy
Can you make folks feel what you feel inside?
'Cos if you're big star bound let me warn ya it's a long hard ride
Then he cried just south of Nashville and he turned that car around
He said
This is where you get off, boy 'cos I'm goin' back to Alabam
As I stepped out of that Cadillac
I said mister many thanks
He said you don't have to call me mister mister
The whole world called me Hank
He said drifter
Can ya make folks cry when you play and sing?
Have you paid your dues?
Can you moan the blues?
Can you bend them guitar strings?
He said boy
Can you make folks feel what you feel inside?
'Cos if you're big star bound let me warn ya it's a long hard ride
He said drifter
Can ya make folks cry when you play and sing?
Have you paid your dues?
Can you moan the blues?
Can you bend them guitar strings?
He said boy
Can you make folks feel what you feel inside?
'Cos if you're big star bound let me warn ya it's a long hard ride
If you're big star bound let me warn ya it's a long hard ride
You know you got a lot of competition out there now son
It's not like it was in the fifties when I was here
Then you got Waylon Jennings
Willie Nelson
Guy Clark and Billy Joe Shafer
David Allan Coe
And you even got my son
