| Fiddle and guitar |

| Where do we take it from here? |

| Rhinestone suits and new shiny c | ars |

| Its been the same way for years |
| G C |
| We need a change |
| Somebody told me when I came to Nashville |
| Son, you've finally got it made |
| Ol Hank made it here |
| And we're all sure that you will |
| But I don't think Hank done it this way |
| Naw, I don't think Hank done this way |
| (instrumental) |
| Ten years on the road makin' one night stands |
| Speeding my young life away |
| Tell me one more time just so's I'll understand |
| Are you sure Hank done it this way? |
| Did ol Hank really do it this way? |
| (instrumental) |
| Lord I've see the world with a five-piece band |
| Looking at the backside of me |
| Singing my sings, one of his now and then |
| But I don't think Hank done 'em this way |
| No I don't think Hank done 'em this way |
| (instrumental) |
