Daddy Hank (The Last Days of Hank Williams) by Shawn Smith



Lying in the back of a blue Cadillac,

It’s not you, it’s the world that went flat.

In a hotel in Knoxville something calling you back

To south Alabama and old rail tracks.



Most of our lives people telling us lies,

When someone tells the truth, it’s hard to recognize.

Too long since you left for Canton, Ohio--

Down a Tennessee highway to the end of your trials.



Chorus:

And I heard you say, once I get to heaven for to ever remain,

But forever’s a long time, and the world’s still in pain.



Lonesome and leaving east Tennessee,

Audrey I miss you, I hope you miss me.

I knew all along you didn’t believe,

And the things that you wanted were so out of reach.



The Lovesick Blues have got me again,

I’d like to tell you, but I just can’t begin.

Lost from my home alone in the wind,

But I think I finally see Jesus again.



Repeat Chorus:
