You know your grandpa was one of my heroes, hank.

David, you were always one of mine.

You know how I love them old Luke The Drifter songs

Man, how I loved "The Ride."
E                                B
That song got me, all balled up, real deep inside
F#
That's the same way that I felt,

Ol' Jr. once said it best.

A country boy can survive.

            B
it's in the songs that we play,
it's in the things that we say.
F#                                  E
Might smoke a little, might drink a lot.
F#                               E
Brothers of the road with broken hearts.

The ol' Louisiana Hayride always respected Hank,
E                     B             E
it's a shame that the Opry don't do the same.
F#
With all of them impersonators at the door.
         E                                                 B
And they still won't reinstate the King of Country Music's name.
