…
I actually could write my own
true eyewitness account song
just like these about Hank… 😳…
the first verse might go something like this…
…
“Hank Jr was the first show I ever seen…
my neighbor took me to see him n’ Atlanta…
he got drunk n’ mean…
but it was ok…
he was alright…
still tried to half-ass
play guitar n’ sing that night…
guess we should have left him alone…
n’ let him sing his song…” 🤷♂️ 🎶
