Bocephus
Bocephus
Now Hank called his son Bocephus
He knew his boy had the heart and soul
By the time he was fifteen
He was already still in the show
And before too long Miss Audrey
She had to let him go
He was high on the Jack's Mountain
Till he fell to the valley below
The man in black told him, Pilgrim
Son, it ain't your time to go
Not yet, boy
Pick up the guitar, pick up the pieces
Show them you can stand on your own
That's right
Oh, he likes to drink, he likes to party
And get down with his rowdy friends
When you're running wide open with Waylon
It's hard to tell the night ends and the day begins
Ain't that the truth
They fired him for Monday night football
Wouldn't let Hank start the show
Just speaking his mind in America
Used to be a right now, don't you know
Seems we've lost our family traditions
Like a train running off the track out of control
Well, he likes to drink, he likes to party
And get down with his rowdy friends
Riding the stage down in Detroit with Kid Rock
You know the party never ends
Well, the sun don't shine tomorrow
And the preacher man says it's the end of time
Well, don't you bother looking for me
Cause you know I'm doing fine
If there's one thing old Hank taught us
It's a country boy can't survive
If there's one thing old Hank taught us
It's a country boy can't survive
That's right
Now Hank called his son Bocephus
He knew his boy had the heart and soul
By the time he was fifteen
He was already still in the show
And before too long Miss Audrey
She had to let him go
He was high on the Jack's Mountain
Till he fell to the valley below
The man in black told him, Pilgrim
Son, it ain't your time to go
Not yet, boy
Pick up the guitar, pick up the pieces
Show them you can stand on your own
That's right
Oh, he likes to drink, he likes to party
And get down with his rowdy friends
When you're running wide open with Waylon
It's hard to tell the night ends and the day begins
Ain't that the truth
They fired him for Monday night football
Wouldn't let Hank start the show
Just speaking his mind in America
Used to be a right now, don't you know
Seems we've lost our family traditions
Like a train running off the track out of control
Well, he likes to drink, he likes to party
And get down with his rowdy friends
Riding the stage down in Detroit with Kid Rock
You know the party never ends
Well, the sun don't shine tomorrow
And the preacher man says it's the end of time
Well, don't you bother looking for me
Cause you know I'm doing fine
If there's one thing old Hank taught us
It's a country boy can't survive
If there's one thing old Hank taught us
It's a country boy can't survive
That's right
