An old red bone hound that looked older than time
I think I've been talkin' to Hank
I wouldn't bet a wooden nickel that he ain't
So deep in the woods where I thought I was alone
I got goose bumps and dizzy and felt kinda faint
I wouldn't bet a wooden nickel that he ain't
Played coast to coast and a few foreign lands"
I wouldn't bet a wooden nickel that he ain't
Well, I swear he looked just like ole Hank
I think I've been talkin' to Hank
I got goose bumps and dizzy and felt kinda faint
I saw a shotgun and a guitar and a six-pack of beer
I swear he looked just like ole Hank
When they start hating love and start loving to hate
Somehow I hope, I let 'em know I loved them all"
I said, "You're mighty skinny" and he said,"Would you believe"
He said,"I've played that old guitar in a drifting country band
That it only took one woman to do this to me
But you know you better get your hat, son, get on out of the way
WelI, I think I've been talkin' to Hank
And an old man that's sure he was only twenty-nine
A sign on the front door said 'Guess, who lives here'
He said,"Some crowds are big and some crowds are small
And I swear he looked just like ole Hank
I got goose bumps and dizzy and felt kinda faint
Stood a structure where something or someone called home
