Whiskey Bent and Hell Bound Songtext
von Hank Williams, Jr.

I′ve got a good woman at home who thinks I do no wrong
But sometimes, Lord, she just ain't always around
And you know that′s when I fall I can't help myself at all
And I get whiskey bent and hell bound

Play me some songs about a ramblin' man
Put a cold one in my hand
′Cause you know I love to hear those guitar sounds

Don′t you play "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry"
′Cause I'll get all balled up inside
And I′ll get whiskey bent and hell bound


Sure enough about closin' time, ′bout stoned out of my mind
And I end up with some honky-tonk special I found
Just as sure as the morning sun comes
Thinking of my sweet girl at home
And I need to get whiskey bent and hell bound

Play me the songs about a ramblin' man
Put old Jim Beam in my hand
'Cause you know I still love to get drunk and hear country sounds

But don′t play "Your Cheatin′ Heart"
'Cause that′ll tear me all apart
I get whiskey bent and hell bound
Yeah, old Hank's songs always make me feel low down
