The Ride
Well I was thumbin' my way from Montgomery Had my guitar on my back When a stranger pulled up beside me In an antique Cadillac He was dressed like 1950's Half-drunk and hollow-eyed Said, 'Its long walk to Nashville Would you like a ride, son?
Well I climbed up in the front seat And he turned on the radio And there was sad old songs comin' out of those speakers It was solid country gold Then I noticed the stranger was ghost-white pale As he asked me for a light And I knew there was something strange about this ride.
CHORUS: He said, 'Drifter, can you make folks howl when you play and sing? Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Have you paid your dues, can you moan the blues, can you bend them guitar strings?' He said, 'Boy, can you make folks feel what you feel inside? Cause if you're big star bound let me warn you it's a long hard ride'
Well, he cried just south of Nashville, and he turned that car around. He said, 'This is where you get off, boy Cause I'm going back to Alabam'' Well, I climbed out of that Cadillac and I said, 'Mister, many thanks.' He said, 'You don't have to call me mister, Mister. The whole world calls me Hank'
CHORUS: He said, 'Drifter, can you make folks howl when you play and sing? Have you paid your dues, can you moan the blues, can you bend them guitar strings?' He said, 'Boy, can you make folks feel what you feel inside? Cause if you're big star bound let me warn you it's a long hard ride'
