If You Don't Like Hank Williams Songtext

von Kris Kristofferson

Worum geht es in dem Song?

Der Songtext "If You Don't Like Hank Williams" von Kris Kristofferson drückt die Wertschätzung für verschiedene Musiker ...

I dig Bobby Dylan and I dig Johnny Cash
And I think Waylon Jennings is a table thumpin' smash
And hearin' Joni Mitchell feels as good as smokin' grass
And if you don't like Hank Williams, honey, you can kiss my ass

'Cause I think what they've done is well worth doin'
And they're doin' it the best way that they can
You're the only one that you are screwin'
When you put down what you don't understand

I said, I dig Roger Miller, Merle Haggard, George Jones
Shotgun Willie Nelson and them rockin' Rollin' Stones
And Jerry Lee's still gotta be the coolest in the class
And if you don't like Hank Williams, honey, you can kiss my ass.

'Cause I think what they've done is well worth doin'
And they're doin' it the best way that they can
You're the only one that you are screwin'
When you put down what you don't understand

Forgot to say John Prine, Neil Young, Lyle Lovett (god bless him), Chris
Gantry, Jerry Jeff Walker, and David Allen Coe...
