Play Me a Hank Song Songtext
von Tyler Childers

Well, it all seemed so happy
But how can that be?
When there′s a whole class of people
Just as lonesome as me

You asked me to tell you
How I can be so blue?
But you'd be the same
If the girl of your dreams
Broke your heart in two

So play me a Hank song
To ease my pain
Because it helps to know someone
Felt the same damn way
Alone and forsaken
Brother, what can I say?
I feel like a Hank song
Since she went away


Ol′ KG's my buddy
We go way back
To the times back in high school
When I was too poor for Jack

But even he knows that sometimes
You can't help right the wrongs
By gettin′ stoned blind
You need to sit down and pine
To a Hank Sr. song

So play me a Hank song
To ease my pain
Because it helps to know someone
Felt the same damn way
Alone and forsaken
Brother, what can I say?
You know I feel like a Hank song
Since she went away

Well, I hope that she′s happy
And I hope that she's free
I hope she finds her a man
To treat her like a queen


And then up out of nowhere
When she needs him around
She wakes up to find
She′s ran out of time, and he's ran out of town

I hope she needs her a Hank song
To ease her pain
Because it′ll help to know someone
Felt the same damn way
Alone and forsaken
Honey what can I say?
I hope you feel like a Hank song
One of these days
