(Waylon Jennings)

Ramblin' about down through the south
I find things are a changing a lot
Especially me, it's easy to see
Montgomery's still hot and I'm not.

I stopped by today at Hank Williams's grave
My hero from the days of my youth
Was that him or me that I used to be
In the times when I searched for the truth.

Hank you were my inspiration
I was obsessed with your ways
But to tell you the truth it's no thanks to you
That I'm still living today.

Hank, I still love your music
And in spite of the things I've just said
You'll always be a hero to but
But the Hank Williams syndrome is dead.

The new hats are here and it's increasingly clear
Our day is slipping on by
They're not like me and you but that's alright too
They could keep the music alive.

Hank you were my inspiration
I was obsessed with your ways
But to tell you the truth it's no thanks to you
That I'm still living today...
