If Ole Hank Could Only See Us Now

(专辑： A Man Called Hoss - 1988)

If ole Hank, Could only see us now
If he could see what we got going down
We got learjets and buses, chauffeured limousines
We done moved from the Ryman, and Opry's on TV
I'd give a hundred dollars, if I could know somehow
What'd ya think, If ole Hank, could see us now

Well Nashville's got too rich, to sing the blues
They've traded in their cowboy boots for high-heeled Gucci shoes
Looks like they took the music out to lunch
Their ain't a decent yodel in the bunch
If ole Hank, could see us now

If he could see what we got going down
We got game shows and videos, and a lot of souvenirs
From machines and synthesizers ringing in our ears
I'd give a hundred dollars, if I could know somehow
What'd ya think, If ole Hank, could only see us now. (Yeah)

It's still a long hard road but you know you're at the top
When the CMA awards you, for crossing over pop
I guess they finally think we've come of age
Singing through the smoke, strobe lights on the stage

If ole Hank, could only see us now
If he could see what we got going down
We got learjets and buses, chauffeured limousines
We done moved from the Ryman, and Ralph Emery's on TV
I'd give a hundred dollars, if I could know somehow
What'd ya think, if ole Hank, could see us now

We spend two hundred thousand dollars making compact discs
And the record never scratch and never break
Ver break, ver break, ver break, ver break. (ha ha ha)
